OK.  In general what I'm seeing is transmit timeout error that is locking
the machine up when I try to run at gigabit speed.  The board is a "Zonet"
brand card, hooked to a Netgear 8 port gigabit switch.

The same card worked in another machine so I'm guessing that the board
isn't a paper weight at least.

Hmmm, OK.  I'm running Debian stable so that is what cc defaults to.  I'll
recompile with 3.3 and see if the problems go away.  It could easily
explain the difference between machines too.

Thanks,
