Problems resolving internet addresses

[mpjbrennan]

Thanks to Martin and Vram - I can't really answer your question as I
don't understand the significance of the interrupts aspect. All I
notice is that the inet6 line is not present in the FC2 set up and it
is so much faster than Ubuntu. The MTU value is also higher - could
this be relevant?  Both connections are using the same DNS servers, and
in fact the Ubuntu box is a much higher spec than the FC2 box. Here are
the relevant ifconfig printouts:

FC2
--------
eth0   Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:20:18:81:1B:3C
inet addr:192.168.0.2  Bcast:192.168.0.255 
Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1000  Metric:1
RX packets:75 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:125 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:1 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:13506 (13.1 Kb)  TX bytes:18517 (18.0 Kb)
Interrupt:5 Base address:0xb000

Ubuntu
------------
eth0   Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0F:EA:36:B2:7F
