This happened with a plain kernel.org kernel 2.6.31.4. The ethernet card
is a PCI-X card (ie. using the e1000 driver), here the output of lspci:

Googling I see that in the past that there are lots of reports, but not
recently. From those reports I read one should disable
tcp-segmentation-offload, which I did as a first step. Anything else
I can do? Or what other information can I provide to help solve
this problem?

Thanks,
Holger
