Okay, I tried current kernel and now network doesnt work.
doing just ifconfig -a gives this:
ifconfig: socket: No buffer space available
on:
NetBSD foo 3.99.21 NetBSD 3.99.21 (XEN3_U) #0: Fri Jun 9 01:12:44 UTC
2006

i386
sigh. :-P
Anyway, theres no high loads anymore but network connectivity would be cool.
