I've seen this on all my kernels since about 1.3.69. Only the 3Com
machines though. Just to test this theroy out I put an NE2000 compatable
card in one of the machines, which now has an uptime of 5 days+ with no
eth0's. I'd *REALLY* like to see a real fix for this since with 15+
servers I'd hate to have to drop $1K+ in new ethernet cards :(
