I tried iceWM and in the 4 hours i was logged in, there was nothing.
Again with gnome, as I have used for 10+ hours, has only frozen
ones. (twice, see below)

I looked at the connection and it showed, that I create the freeze
in Xfce4 by unplugging the cable (syslog at the end, dmesg said
nothing usefull). Unplugging has no effect on iceWM and gnome.
I started replying your comments in Gnome and it froze the second
time. During the freeze I noticed that the LED's on my switch where
off, as there where no link on the ethernet cable to my laptop.

I tried disable the avahi-daemon, it's mentioned in the syslog
below. But it made no difference. Is that daemon necessary?
