I had a similar problem, with a Via Rhine ethernet lan.. I fixed it by
disabling 2 things in the kernel - I recompiled the kernel with no smp
support, and also with no PCI shared memory (MMIO) support. It seemed
that these features created a resource gridlock somewhere, causing gnome
and some other graphics apps to lock up.
