Due to a signal fluctuation, the access port "went out of range", and this was interpreted as the card having been ejected. (Removing the card would require half an hour with a screwdriver; it's built in to this laptop.)
I tried "ifconfig eth0 down; ifconfig eth0 up", and it said no such device...
Logically, the link status toggled. This should be no different than unplugging and plugging in a cat 5 cable. It is NOT synonymous with a cardbus eject...
