Hello
I get some of the "page allocation failure" errors. My hardware is 4 CPU
Opteron with one quad + one dual intel e1000 cards. Kernel is plain 2.6.18
and for two cards MTU is set to 9000.

With 2.6.16.x there where no issues. I am not sure, but this seems to indicate
some error in the e1000 driver and there was a major update between 2.6.16
and 2.6.18. I have also tried 2.6.17, it has the same issue. So I need to
go back to 2.6.16.
What can I do to remove those errors?
