Intel e1000 drivers have been a continual source of pain for me under CentOS5. I ended up rebuilding a box as FreeBSD to get past the problem as the BSD driver was more stable. Didn't matter which version of the intel drivers I used, as often as 5x a day the network card would jam up its TX buffers.
Sorry, hijacking the thread a bit, but how could one determine if this jam-in-the-buffers issue applies to a given server? I see some occasional short-duration 'freezing' on some RHEL 5 & 6 machines... haven't been able to id the cause yet. They are using e1000 - maybe this could be related? Thanks!
