Please grep for a XID line in dmesg and send it so we can figure the

If it says something like "blah blah XID 1c4...", you should give current
-rc a try (who shouldn't ?).

Hey, thanks for getting back so fast.

XID 1c4000c0. (And it says "RTL8168c/8111c" in this line, not the 8168B that lspci claimed).

I just found https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/12/1/399. It looks like you've had a handle on this problem since the beginning of December? http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=811fd3010cf512f2e23e6c4c912aad54516dc706 looks promising.

thanks,
