The thing is though, if I revert back to 2.2.17 kernel, everything works 
fine...so its not cabling, and its not the other computers...

I will tcpdump and see if the packets are actually leaving the interface...

btw when I said I can ping my IP address and my loopback address, I 
meant I was able to do it from the same machine as the problem...if that 
changes anything...
