>Description:
when trying to send packets via loopback interface there occurs strange packet loss:
nephrite at nephrite:/usr/home/nephrite$ ping 127.0.0.1
..
--- 127.0.0.1 ping statistics ---
134 packets transmitted, 65 packets received, 51% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.053/0.067/0.124/0.009 ms
the same for any local network services like sendmail or oops http proxy. "Real" network interfaces like my 3Com card work fine.
Here is ifconfig output:

Just boot, enter "ping localhost" and wait, it will happen very soon.
