Well I tinkered around for ages and didn't get anywhere. Finally decided I might have to buy a new motherboard, CPU, RAM. Looked around and found one that looked good but wasn't sure about Linux compatibility for the Realtek LAN chip. Googled for the chip and found a post on the ubuntu forums referring to it, but it also mentioned the symptom I was having: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=3d77b5dc6d6dd253b7bd2da023905210&t=538448 It turned out I just had to power the machine off, disconnect the LAN cable and power to the PC, wait a minute, reconnect the network cable and power on again, now everything's working again! I was so close to spending a bunch of cash on a new setup. I'm still tempted actually after doing all that research, but at least my Linux setup is back up and kicking.
