Subject: PROBLEM: 2.6.32-rc8 panic - sky2 (I think)

[my first report to this list... please be kind]
Kernel built from current git master branch - also with current nouveau 
driver (from xfree.org git).

Problem: during a period of relative inactivity (middle of the night), 
the system crashed. I've got kernel trace output in the logs that point 
towards the sky2 driver (see below). The errors were for eth0, eth1 
(dual-nic motherboard) was unaffected.

There were no relevant log messages indicating anything abnormal prior 
to the time of the initial kernel trace. A Subsequent to the trace, eth0 
was bouncing up and down (Fedora network manager kept trying to bring 
the network back up). Each time the adapter came back up, I see DHCP 
Discover, offer and ack messages for each connected device. It appears 
that the link would go back down before the completion of DCHP activity. 
The only trace is for the first event; subsequently, I just see sky2 
eth0: tx timeout; disabling interface and enabling interface messages.

Oddly, this cycle continued for one hour (down to the second), at which 
time the system rebooted. There were no messages indicating anything 
about final reason for the reboot.
