Dave,
well, right now I'm checking the ethernet card. This is what happens:
1) If I ping a free address, the system just sits there, no ping comes back, machine runs fine.
2) If I ping a remote machine, around 4 seconds nothing, the arp request goes over the net, then 3 pings return with 4, 3, 2 seconds ping time and then the machine locks solid. I tried to measure it more exactly with a ping, it looks like after the arp answer there's time for another packet (or that packet causes the hang). I get one echo request (and the corresponding reply) or a connected message from telnet.
-- No, this happened only once, I can't reproduce it... 3) If I start a ping and then hit the Ctrl-C key, the arp request goes out (as in 2), gets entered in the tables in the remote system. I then can login into the laptop via telnet and use the connection (right now I'm doing a backup, hope the connection lasts long enough ;-}). (Yes, it's done :-)
Klaus
