I always thought it was the less-than-perfect ABIT BP6 loosing an irq or something. (odd that it _always_ is the NIC that goes though...) I also have a k6 with the same NIC, and another UP machine at work. They never fail this way. Could it be a SMP problem?

That never helped me - "shutdown -r now" is my way to recovery. The card driver is compiled in, perhaps I should try making it modular and unload/reload.
