sorry for missing subject!

here is the hw description:
Digital UNIX V4.0F (Rev. 1229);
Firmware revision: 5.9-5
PALcode: Digital UNIX version 1.86-68
COMPAQ AlphaStation XP900 466 MHz

the FDDI interface description is up in the
subject line.

here is a fragment of the logfile:

as I said in the previous message, I think that
the problem occurs at device driver level, may be
not.
