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.
