Transfered 1,8 GB without any crash. As the nvnet module seems to be part of
the NVIDIA released drivers I use my Realtek 8139 (like before when I had the
crashes). I just compiled the NVIDIA drivers and will give it a run. I am
wondering where the actual bug might be located as you remember that I did
not use APIC in the first place.

Thanx for help
