I did ping one of my machines after I installed kernel 2.1.5 and it crached,
checked the source and found out that the patch wasn't applied, so I applied
the patch and it's alright now, the kernel source I used is from ftp.funet.fi
and it lived in /pub/Linux/kernel/v2.1/... so I don't know what's going on
but something fishy.

And for those who was asking about routers, my ping packets passed through
our Retix 7000 without any problems.
