Ubuntu uses the OSS driver which is in the kernel. You could try a liveCD/USB for testing purpose and see if the problem disappears. You could also update your BIOS and see if that helps. I cannot remember that my system froze because of the network chip. Maybe some other hardware in your

I'll try the live CD. My evidence that it was the NIC is that when all I did was switch to using the Intel NIC, I no longer had any trouble. Mind you, there could be a defect in the board. But the hang I observe seems so much like the others that I don't want to call it a coincidence. --
