Untested patches of the day (it's late and I need to sleep):

http://www.fr.zoreil.com/linux/kernel/2.6.x/2.6.9-rc2-mm2/r8169-200.patch
http://www.fr.zoreil.com/linux/kernel/2.6.x/2.6.9-rc2-mm2/r8169-210.patch

The first one should perform a clean reset of the device under TX_TIMEOUT.
The second one should be able to detect a broken setup wrt pci dac
transaction and downgrade the advertised features of the driver accordingly.

The quality of my untested patches past 00 AM is not guaranteed.
