Is this the same gateway machine that you reported via-rhine "Something
Wicked happened! 001a" messages on? You haven't answer my email yet, did
you work it out? If so please let me know how.

(If you didn't, I never asked:
   + is the card in a bus-master PCI slot?
     (it's not supposed to work otherwise according to the source).
   + compiler version?
   + overclocking?
   + and Alan's question: "Are the people with problems running VLAN's ?"

 and yes, I love playing 1000 questions :)

/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes has this:
"Most distributed ping clients are buggy. Get an updated one from the
 iputils package."

but I don't know what was buggy about them. Unfortunately the Changes
document does not list which iputils versions that have non-buggy ping's,
or what versions the 'distributed' refers to.

But if you are having driver/card problems it might be related ...
