Hi,

I usually use rtk CardBus with NetBSD-current(1.5)/i386.
I find the problem when I put a big file(48M) via ftp.

rtk0 at cardbus1 dev 0 function 0: Corega FEther CB-TXD 10/100BaseTX
rtk0: Ethernet address 00:90:99:48:51:f5

It seemed that Underrun error occurred.
Referring Linux driver and tlp driver,I tried to make next patch.
Next patch seemed fix this problem.

I think Initial early TX threshold may be bigger than 256 bytes.

Any comments.
Regards!
