It is ok now :) It was proofed by the hint that mii-tool is checking for
eth0 - eth7. I thought there might be an error on your system and you
would have several ifcfg-ethX configuration files. It's not the case.

Ok, then it should be no IRQ problem too. Maybe you should give changing
the NIC a try and see if the errors do not occur any more. Check your
cables tool.
