It seems that the tulip driver for the onboard network card doesn't work correctly. (Transmission errors etc.) For more details see 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=454590. 

I found a hint on http://individual.utoronto.ca/chant/asrock.html that one would need the patch
 tulip-fixes-for-uli5261.patch
to get the driver work correctly. It seems that this patch is not present in the 2.6.12-9-amd64-generic kernels.
