In looking at the dmesg log for bug 3440, it looks like eth0 is a
RealTek adapter and eth1 is an eepro100.

"8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.27
eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at 0xd0842000, 00:50:fc:4c:d6:9b, IRQ 9
eth0:  Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139C'"

"eepro100.c:v1.09j-t 9/29/99 Donald Becker

eepro100.c: $Revision: 1.36 $ 2000/11/17 Modified by Andrey V. Savochkin
[off-list ref] and others
eth1: 0000:00:0e.0, 00:A0:C9:43:8C:E4, IRQ 15."

Another way to verify which driver is associated with a device name is
to use 'ethtool -i eth0'.  This will report the driver name and version
of the driver.

If the same problems happens with the pcnet32 driver, I can help you
debug the problem with the pcnet32.

Same behaviour for drivers:
  - 8139too (kernel 2.6.8.1 and 2.6.8)
  - e100 (kernel 2.6.8)
  - eepro100 (kernel 2.6.8.1)

I have tried with all these drivers. Therefore it seemed to me, that this is not related to any specific driver. But to be sure, I will grab a 3com 905C from another server and try with that one and will try with the PCNet32 too.

This is an ethernet driver related problem.  Which of the 
ethernet cars (PCNet32 or E100)
is assigned to eth0?  And which of the two e100 drivers (e100 or 
eepro100) are you using?
