I also have a T60 running 24h/7d. From my experience, there seems to be
problems with various kernels at least up to 2.6.26 and Thinkpads and
the problems are not specific to Ubuntu. I do use fglrx (no beryl) and
crashes appear with a quiet blank screen. I nearly always get the NMI
crash after some
I also tried the Lenovo and e1000 fix scripts (the lenovo script patches
a different address in the eeprom) during the last days. The result was
rather negative. It didn't fix anything and all I got was problems
during boot time as the e1000 module wasn't loaded anymore after the
Lenovo script chan
Marc,
your problem seems to be identical to my T60. You asked for 8.0.1: The device
ids for the 82573L got removed from e1000 8.0.1 as the e1000e driver is now the
default. As the patched 7.6.15 seems to work fine, I currently have no urgent
need readd the device ids to the latest e1000 driver
Yes, similar problems here with various Suse/Debian kernels and the
recommendations found on the net did not work 100%. In the end,
a patch posted from Auke Kok did show the solution: disable ASPM for the
network device.

I had similar problems on my T60 with Suse and Debian. I spend days
searching and testing various solutions published on the net. Most only
fixed the problem on the first sight... but than various problems
appeared when using the 24h/7d. Especialy receiving data at high speed
or many small two-way
