an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available
(8.21). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  alx module not working correctly

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since when I upgraded from kernel linux-image-extra-3.19.0-16, alx module stopped working correctly. 
  a ping to a reachable host results in ~50% packet loss.
  Dmesg reports this: 

  [  336.763660] alx 0000:02:00.0 eth0: fatal interrupt 0x400, resetting
  [  336.765816] alx 0000:02:00.0 eth0: NIC Up: 100 Mbps Full
