Additionally, sometimes, probably after suspend/resume, the wired
ethernet does not come up properly again, ip addr claims "NO CARRIER"
even if the LEDs on the interface and on the switch claim that there
was a link. No packets are received by the interface when it's at
this stage.

As of 2.6.35.3, this issue has become worse. It now even happens
directly after freshly booting the system that I cannot get a link on
the wired ethernet.

What information do you need to find out what's going on there?

Can you please post the output of dmidecode?

We have a tool that you can use to dump the registers from the port in the failed state:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/Ethregs%20-%20Register%20Dump%20Tool/ethregs-1.12.3/

I have not been able to reproduce any of the issues you reported on T60 here in the lab, so we need to start looking into more details.

Also, could you please file a bug at e1000.sf.net with all the information you provided so far?

Thanks,
Emil
