Hi Eric,

If I run my tests with the 2.6.30-2-amd64 kernel the network doesn't 
malfunction.

If I run my tests with the 2.6.32-3-amd64 kernel the network does 
malfunction.

If I take the forcedeth.ko module from the 2.6.30-2-amd64 kernel and 
drop that into /lib/modules/2.6.32-3-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/ and then 
reboot to 2.6.32-3-amd64 and rerun my tests - the network does malfunction.

Whats the best way of testing this? (tcpdump listening on both hosts and 
then running pings between the systems?)
