is the network card really the problem ?  I don't want to be replacing all my network cards if the problem is elsewhere .... if you can understand the oops message please, please, please let me know where the problem is ...

another oops:
---------------------- cut ----------------------------------------------------------------

ksymoops 2.4.4 on i686 2.4.18-19.7.xsmp.  Options used
     -V (default)
     -k /proc/ksyms (default)

     -o /lib/modules/2.4.18-19.7.xsmp/ (default)
     -m /boot/System.map-2.4.18-19.7.xsmp (default)

Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information.  I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc.  ksymoops -h explains the options.

After a relatively short period (3 months) we replaced the broadcom cards 
with Intel e1000 cards. We disabled the onboard cards as well and stuck a 
e1000 in there. We have 0 network related crashes since then. I have just 
my testbox left that actually has a broadcom card in it.

I do have 1 e1000 (out of 5) card that seems to have some network errors 
which happen during the nightly NFS backup. I suspect a cabling issue.

10:47am  up 65 days, 22:15, 38 users
eth0 - Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 4.3.2-k1 NAPI (020618)
RX packets:950232292 errors:56443 dropped:56443 overruns:68 frame:0
TX packets:357551335 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

The thing is connected to a 3com 6 port gigabit switch and is _not_ using 
jumbo frames.

It might just be your lucky day, if you only knew.
