Dear Fellow Linux Peoples,
I recently switched to 2.1 for the first time, and the loopback is
dropping packets:
---
bash# ifconfig 
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3924  Metric:1
          RX packets:20 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:1400 dropped:20 overruns:0 carrier:0
---
Why? :)
