So I guess there are some silicon changes in newer VT613x controllers. If you're using PCIe version of the controller you may see the same issue. If you have a spare NIC or USB NIC how about trying other ethernet driver to rule out possible vge(4) issues? I managed to find a site in China that sells a stand-alone PCIe VT6130 card and ordered it but it was not delivered yet. Don't know how long it would take.
