e1000e very unstable in Proxmox 1.6

[alexpacio]

Hi,
i installed proxmox 1.6 in a Supermicro server board (based on Intel nehalem), with 2 Intel® 82574L Gigabit lan ethernet on board, loaded as e1000e by 2.6.32 proxmox kernel. The ethernet connectivity is very unstable some minutes after the boot. I tested the board with another OS (windows 2008 r2) and it works perfectly. I also tried to connect an ethernet card (based on the realtek r8169 chipset) and i configured it, but it seems that theentire network stack doesn't work...

can you help me?
