It could be that tweaking your driver parameters with your curent card could cure the problem... We know it's the r8169 from your other logs (which I didn't read - tsk tsk) Look at your irq allocations cat /proc/interrupts See the network driver - note its IRQ - have a look at its corresponding stats in /proc/irq/<you noted>/files - there are counters there - maybe they'll help diagnose (unhandled interrupts etc). Look at using an alternative driver... I just googled and found this: http://www.jamesonwilliams.com/hardy-r8168
