    It's not a so similiar problem or is it.
    I also have problems with gnome and freezing when using 2.6.0.
    With my old 2.4.20 kernel all is ok. My problems starts with 2.6.0
    installation, which I needed for some hardware support. The new kernel
    works well in console. Have no errors in `dmesg`, not even in syslog.
    If I setup a nework device and then also define a default route to my
    gateway gnome seems to freeze with it's first network access.
    If I start net and then gnome, gnome needs to start over 20-30minutes
    and still did not come up totally. If I setup network in a xterm in
    gnome then gnome freezes after a short while, e.g. when starting mozilla.
    It is no hard freeze, it looks like gnome is running on a 1 Mhz PC or as
    if it has time lack of several minutes.
    But it's only in grapical gnome. In a console I can surf with lynx.
    First I thougth it could be a gnome problem, but problems only come when
    booting with 2.6.0
