Update:
I have played around with a few things. Right now I have network traffic with reasonable speed. Not sure which of the kernel parms worked Maybe all of them but I suspect it was booting the kernel with mem=3G that worked. So must be a bug with skge or sk98lin and addressing over 3Gb memory.
1. Compiled sk98lin driver 10.21.1.3 and blacklisted skge and ipv6
root@rrosso-gutsy64:/media/disk/DriverInstall# lsmod | grep sk
sk98lin 209756 1
2. Use static ip and restart networking
3. boot kernel with the following
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=80479eaf-1974-4e71-ad71-a7982df90353 ro quiet splash noapic nolapic acpi=off mem=3G
If I have more time I will try skge again and see if just using mem= will work. That way it is narrowed down a little bit to a 3Gb+ problem.
