This is the stock kernel I'm using... I tried the latest 2.6.16.9, the 
problem was the same.

Problem : 
0000:07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 
88E8036 Fast Ethernet Controller (rev 15)

I can browse the web, check emails etc... but, If I try some rsync 
from my old laptop (to backup my stuff) the network freeze after 1 or 
2minutes.
the bug is reproductible.
I don't have logs each time, but, sometimes I got this
 Apr 15 11:35:42 archon kernel: [4297572.802000] NETDEV WATCHDOG: 
eth0: transmit timed out
 Apr 15 11:35:42 archon kernel: [4297572.802000] sky2 hardware hung? 
flushing

same freeze with the 2.6.16.9


thanks in advance,

thomas.

PS : I didn't subscribe any linux ml, can I see any progress on this 
report somewhere ?
