[MinnowBoard] Repeating "pch_gbe: Transfer Carrier Sense Error" message

Yes!  It was the Ethernet connection.  Thanks.

I tried replacing the cable, but that didn't do it.  Then I moved the
connection directly to my router instead of thru a hub.  That did it.

The problem comes back when I go back to the hub.  So I will just leave it
connected to the router.

Thanks for your help.

Robert

Robert,

not sure where this comes from, but if I had to guess it's the wifi driver.
Try plugging in a wifi stick and see if it disappears..

Carrier sense message could only apply to an ethernet connection, either
wired or wireless. Do you have a network hooked up and if so what is it's
configuration?

Ken
