I tested with unison, ping -f -s 8
as did a friend with the same hardware.

My kernel : 2.6.3 + patched driver ( except the last 3 patch )
My friend : a stock 2.6.4-mm1 kernel.

everything goes fine.

my friend told me something about the io/schedulers as a source 
of instability .. i'm investigatng.
