I am having an issue with an Intel card, 82546EB, using the e1000  
driver. It happens as soon as the driver is loaded and will not work.  
Using latest driver from sourceforge and have also tried previous  
driver 8.0.19. Here is all the information I could think to give that  
might help in solving this issue for me. I have verified that the card  
does indeed work by testing it in an alternative OS.

I have tried using the ignore_64bit_dma=1 option as well as  
TxDescriptorSet=4 TxDescriptors=1024 options when loading the module  
with no discernible difference in behavior.

Let me know if there is anything else I need to provide or if I have  
missed the obvious answer.

Thanks for any assistance,

Jon
