:Hi:
:
:nfe0: watchdog timeout - lost interrupt recovered

:The network access from this machine or to this machine is at 
:best sporadic and SSH clients timeout.

:The box has a NVIDIA nForce 405 Nvidia (nfe0@pci0:0:7:0).

:Is there any workaround to fix this issue ?

    It sounds like nfe0's interrupt is miswired, you have two choices:

    (1) Try running nfs0 in polling mode.

	ifconfig nfe0 polling

    (2) Compile SMP but without APIC_IO.  This might fix the interrupt
	routing issue too.
