The cleanout is done, but i found another issue:

Mar 31 13:27:18 dy-xeon-1 kernel: nfs: server 192.168.2.1 not responding,
still trying
Mar 31 13:27:18 dy-xeon-1 kernel: e1000: eth0: e1000_clean_tx_irq: Detected

Mar 31 13:27:18 dy-xeon-1 kernel: nfs: server 192.168.2.1 not responding,
still trying

After this, the server is unreachable, and need to reset.
(only ping reply in eth1)

The other machines on the lan, accounts some dropped package.

(During the network structure cleanout, i have installed an extra e100 [not
e1000] card to this machine, and it work as eth2.)

The driver is 6.3.9, kernel 2.6.15.7.

Thanks,
Janos
