[SLUG] Promiscuous mode

[Howard Lowndes <lannet@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have just noticed this in a log:

Oct 19 13:11:41 stratos kernel: eth0: Transmit timeout, status 0d 0000 media 08.
Oct 19 13:11:41 stratos kernel: eth0: Tx queue start entry 11797532 dirty entry 11797528.
Oct 19 13:11:41 stratos kernel: eth0: Promiscuous mode enabled.

I don't know what caused lines 1 & 2, but line 3 worries me cos the
interface certainly is in promiscuous mode and I cannot seem to get it out
of that mode.

Should I be worried?
