I have the same problem
Motherboard: Gigabyte 965P-DS3
Network: Marvell 88E8056
tested also with Gusty Live CD,
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.22-10-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 22 08:11:52 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
$ lspci
04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Unknown device 4364 (rev 12)
(It is detected correct as 88E8056 in Feisty)

/var/log/messages full of:
sky2 eth0: rx error, status 0x5ca0002 length 1482
and some times:
sky2 eth0: rx error, status 0x5ca0002 length 1514

after the eth0 fail, these commands seems to make it work again with reboot:
sudo ifdown eth0; sudo ifup eth0;
