    As this is a production machine i haven't had the balls to move to
    2.6.8-rc3. Instead, i took only the via-rhine.c from 2.6.8-rc4-mm1
    applied your last patch to it and recompiled the module.

    What should i say: It works! I wasn't able to trigger the error with
    my standard test (copying a 680MB ISO image from/to Samba shares in
    parallel). An this even with "large readwrite" enabled in smb.conf.

    So, i consider this gone - for now :)

              (But perhaps you should update the drivers version number)

    Thank you very much!

      Best regards,

        Peter
