[BUG REPORT, 2.6.22] e1000: detected tx unit hang

[speedy]

Hello Linux crew,

        I've just switched the

        Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82545GM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 01)

        netword card to an NForce 2 based motherboard and after a day
        of work it got stuck with "detected tx unit hang" messages
        showing in the console.

        The card worked flawlessly under load in a different computer
        for two years now, under the same/similar Ubuntu operating system.

        Unfortunaltly, the EEPROM fix from

        http://e1000.sourceforge.net/doku.php?id=known_issues&DokuWiki=9502f399bc8cae1528c5e85d2bc423f6

        from is not working/applicable:

        root@backupserver:~# ./fixeep-82573-dspd.sh eth1
        No appropriate hardware found for this fixup

        If more info is needed, let me know.

        Thanks!
