well, boo. the labs version doesn't give enough information. i was expecting
something like
; grep ether0 /dev/irqalloc
65.0 11 17224065 190397006374 msi-x
ether0
which gives vector.processor, bus irq, number of interrupts, total fastticks
taken, type, and driver.
with this info, one can calculate ns/interrupt and interrupts/sec.

this doesn't look like very much traffic. how did you test? are you using
the latest tcp? what is the ping latency? older labs kernels did a poor job
with moderate latency, and any packet loss. newer versions should be ok,
but i haven't tested myself.

my version of the driver handles this hardware

you don't have a ps2 mouse, but the system is configured to expect one.
0xea -> set streaming.
