Hi Andy,
Thanks for reply.
Funnily enough, I looked at this at work today and decided to check against 8139too.c from 2.6.2 and 2.6.3 trees. There was a lot of changes, but it appeared only to that file (i.e. nothing referencing it) - so I have just built 2.6.3 with the 8139too.c source from 2.6.2 just to make sure it isn't code elsewhere (i.e. pci stuff?) that is causing it.
So far it is running perfectly. I will wait a while to test, and if it doesn't show any problems, we can presume it is the changes that caused this problem for me on my system.
Enquiries to the HantsLUG seem to be that no-one else gets this problem.
