i have tested next configurations for several days: standalone 2.2.9 driver with 2.6.35-rc4 and RSS=0 standalone 2.2.9 driver with 2.6.33.2 and RSS=0 statically linked driver with 2.6.35-rc4 kernel
all three configurations had no any problems. seems that IGB was fixed in 35-rc4. gonna try 2.6.34.1 with static drivers tomorrow night.
