How about this. Assume it is a bad driver. Get a better driver, or a
different NIC. I had a server drop off-line recently shortly after it
went on-line. The machine was fine, networking was down. No errors.
It has a 3C580B NIC, and was running the driver that came with RH6.2,
3COM's 3c90x version 1.0.0d. I upgraded the driver to version 1.0.0i and
it has been running like a champ ever since.
