Hi

I just tried to run latest kernel on my DH55HC motherboard latest kernel 3.6.6 and got various network problems, such as network traffic are stopping, and sometimes i am getting kernel panic.
When traffic are stopping, ethtool -r eth0 sometimes helps.
When i do ethtool -G eth0 rx NNN , sometimes it will give kernel panic, but it is hard to reproduce.

I tried to capture panic on pictures, so will try to decode on what i got photo, it is a nightmare, but sadly i dont have serial in hands to get data over it.

skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:f86fc769 len:25807 put:25807 head:c1da1800 data:c1da1840 tail:0xc1da7d0f end:c1da1f40 dev:eth0
