Hmm, I have the same issue, however I do not have the option of adding additional LAN cards. However the bug is not 'fatal' for my server (Ubuntu 10.04LTS), it recovers without issues after the nic reset occurs. Can't even detect packet loss when it happens! I did notice this bug happening to the idle interface as well (the system has two onboard Via Rhine interfaces (Via LT15000AG)) and seems to be unrelated to network load as my server hardly has any. By the way this bug seems to have been present since at least 8.04LTS (2.6.24) and even before that on Debian Etch (2.6.20), I also had the same issue on their kernels.

Bit strange that this bug (Which I can trace back to about 2002 using google) still has not been fixed...
