This points to some strange kernel bug or other issue with the Fedora kernel. Is there anything in dmesg when it's having the issues? > Is there anyone I can get in contact with to analyze this further? > Run some patched kernel? module? I would file a bug against the kernel and provide all the info you can from this thread. It might also be interesting to do a tcpdump of the failure and look at it against one from one of the non affected oses, but if thats needed the kernel folks should ask for it in the bug. > Thanks > > charlie kevin
