Hi,

With xen unstable I have the problem that the network stops working after a while. Heavy network traffic seems to make it more likely, it triggers almost every time I try to untar a kernel source tree, where the tarball comes from a NFS-mounted volume.

The network card doesn't receive interrupts any more according to /proc/interrupts. It works fine in native linux and also with xen 2.0. It's a tulip card. Anyone has an idea what this might be or where to look?
