Steve: I ran ifconfig lo, and the error messages seemed to slow down dramatically, until I rebooted... then there was a flurry of the messages again, and now almost stopped. The confusing thing, is that I haven't changed anything in terms of hardware/software.
Could it be the netmask, or maybe the arp cache got overloaded from a lot of traffic? Obviously, I'm grasping. I'll let you know whatever I find. ps -- about the irq 31, I have another identical machine with the same setting that is working perfectly... > Are you sure that irq 31 is what you want for eth0?
