Every so often, my ethernet card apparently decides to stop accepting any commands from the kernel. A quick call to /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart fixes this, but when I am not at my machine (and wanting to ssh into said machine), this isn't a possibility. I am using the experimental driver for the Attansic built-in network card, as it is the only networking driver support by my kernel. I have checked dmesg upon network failures, but nothing useful seems to be there. I've attached some (hopefully) helpful output. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
