It has an onboard Realtek 8110S chip. When I stopped using the r8169 module the crashes stopped. Now using a PCI rtl8139 nic temporarily. Is there any way to apply these newer -netdev patches without resorting to -mm tree? This is a production machine, so I'd rather stick to linus' 2.6.x, but if there's no choice I'll try -mm... Thanks in advance for your attention.
