Hi,
brand new means, that there hasn't been any software installed yet.
Sorry for confusing.
The Problem was, that one of the two intel e1000 NIC has the power
management function that enabled. :-(
The solution and diagnostic steps are found here:
http://e1000.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Issues#82573.28V.2FL.2FE.29_TX_Unit_Hang_messages
Applying the suggested steps solved the problem immediately.
Regards
Götz

Subject: RHEL 5 Network problems - eth0: e1000_clean_tx_irq: Detected Tx Unit Hang
Hi,
recently I installed RHEL 5 on a brand new server. Doing a yum update, I
noticed some networkproblems - network slowdown and stopping at all.
Doing some googling on the log message told me to do a "ethtool -K eth0
tso off" but this didn't solve the troblem. After one ... two ...
minutes the problem is still there.
The kernel is 2.6.18-8.1.1.el5.
