I set up a server to search for the bug. The problem is definitely in the ipv4
Large Receive Offload. This is what I did:

untarred 2.6.29
patched to 2.6.30-rc5
I configured it
compiled it: works

Then:

cp -a rc5 dir to rc6 dir
make oldconfig
--> new option: INET_LRO
switched INET_LRO to off
compiled: works

Then:

switched INET_LRO to on
compiled: bug is back

I'll inform the writers of this module. To be continued.

R.

No, of course not. I created a ne real rc6 dir and copied the .config
