Paul, I can confirm that adding 'acpi=noirq' to entries in /boot/grub/menu.lst eliminates both ethernet problems (ie. both the inability to use the network and the system freeze when bouncing an interface), for both the 2.6.15 and 2.6.17 kernels (the latter provided by Ben Collins for testing) on my 3250HX-01.

Chuck, can you explain what you mean by 'blacklisting' the motherboard?
