I have an Averatec 3250, which has a Via Unichrome card. The default
behavior of xorg is to use the "via" driver. If your xorg.conf file has
a "Device" section which says
Driver "via"
then try adding a line
Option "DisableIRQ"
before the end of that Device section and see if that helps.
On my machine the wired ethernet stops working under X without that
option. I remember reports that the wireless ethernet also had
this problem on some Averatecs.
