I've been using 2.0.36 pre6 for a while without any problems. Last week I came back to campus, and I got two solid lockups when using ethernet (which I hadn't used during the summer). I also have a PCI ne2k clone. I installed pre7, and I've been using it without any problems a few days now (*knock on wood*).
(looking trough the logs I now notice an "Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address c4650004" Oops just before the latest lockup)
Btw, if I put my ne2k in promisc mode I also get random lockups. This has happened with all kernel versions (2.0.27->) I've tested, so I've assumed my card is slightly broken.
