What kind of a network card do you have? I have experienced total lockups w/ Xircom CardBus Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56 CBEM56G. When I remove the card the machine comes back, and then I have to set up the network again. If I set the eth0 to promisc it helps, but I still see it from time to time. I use 2.4.16, pcmcia-cs-3.1.30 and dhcp-client 2.0pl5-11 on a Dell Inspiron 5000e Debian unstable system. -- Jørn Helge B.
