The thinterminals in UCC are (I think!) original nForce. They were
locking up quite regularly until we put a recent 2.6 kernel on them
without APIC and a couple of other options (that nVidia noted may
cause issues). They're not fairly reliable, apart from lots of
"Badness" in dmesg about functions getting called from interrupt
contexts by the nforce drivers...  *shrug*

As for the network card - perhaps you could try nvidia's nvnet
driver?
