Hi,
ok, the mystery solved :) the 8139too interface was plugged into the 4.x
subnet instead of 3.x subnet... ok ok I wear the brown bag or whatever
else is appropriate for the situation :)
Everything works now :)

This suggests tasks yielding the CPU while task->state !=

Hi guys,
Imagine two machines, a laptop with 4 network cards (only 2 relevant here)
