Analysis follows, but I wanted to ask you to bisect back if you can to
find the apparent patch to make the difference. Basically at this
point I'd say its not likely to be an e1000 issue, but I'd like to
follow up and make sure.
That's going to be ugly, since I can't reproduce it at will. Maybe if
I netperf it to the other box I can push it over.
Nothing seems out of order, but the latency may be low, I'd be curious
what these looked like before with the old kernel. Some of the other
things to compare would have been the lspci -vv output from your
chipset with old/new kernel, in case the bridge/system configuration
changed. There are no known problems right now with this chipset
82546EB
OK. will try later when I have more time. For now I switched to the
onboard via rhine controller.
shared int, fine, but whats with the ERR: ?
Hmm. Having rebooted they look rather lower. but might be a time thing.

except you didn't include any of the e1000 load information nor the
system's boot information as it came up.
OK, it had gone since reboot, but I rebooted just now .... new info
attached.
This chipset is one of the most frequent common elements in problem
reports of TX hangs for e1000. My current theory (we've bought a
bunch of these systems and never reproduced the issue) is that there
is something either design specific or BIOS specific that causes this
chipset to interact very badly with e1000 hardware. Some systems have
the issue and some don't. If you could bisect back to a working point
it would be interesting to see where that pointed.
OK, is going to be hard to bisect, since the other one was an Ubuntu
kernel, but I guess I can give 2.6.15 virgin a shot, at least.
doesn't seem you're overclocked. Good.
Nah, I'm pretty conservative with hardware, get enough problems when
it's all running within specs ;-)
Thanks for looking at all this.
