[UCLA-LUG] eth0 problems

Are you completely sure the machine freezes up?  Sometimes, it may seem like
that when the eth card is looking for a dhcp server.  It should time out,
and if this is indeed the case, then there may be something wrong with your
ethernet settings.  Try making sure that the card is plugged into the wall,
and tell us what type of card you have.
