Just have exactly the same (on eth1), and only once... My machine is
now up for 10 days, and still solid as a rock.

eth0 Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:24:77:42:34
RX packets:8353075 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:7486798 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0

eth1 Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:24:77:39:00
RX packets:13969406 errors:8 dropped:8 overruns:0
TX packets:16356726 errors:1 dropped:1 overruns:0

The 2 are 8k 3c590, with 0.30-all version of the driver. This version
seems to be really better than the 0.25 or 0.28 ones.

Maybe it would be a good idea to incorporate this driver on the next
version of the official kernel ? Not sure this driver is perfect (I saw
one message of a person saying he still has problems), but at least it
seems far more stable than the 0.25 wich is still the official kernel
driver...
