>(Geez, I guess I had a few issues).

Sure, same here.

My hardware is a P200, 64Mb, 2 x Seagate ST525205 + 1 Quantum Fireball SE, PCI
NE2000 Clone.

Perhaps the NE2000 is the problem? Some days ago, my ethernet went nuts with
rare messages (first time in about two years of working ok). There is some
changes in the ne.c code? Perhaps the Pentium bug workaround code?

My system is under heavy network load 24/7, but with two years of service with
no problems until 2.0.3x series.

I can't reboot twice a week to clean dead processes everywhere.
