When rtmac is loaded, RT payload frames are still standard (if using
UDP/IP e.g.), just additional meta frames pop up, and some of them may
contain tunneled non-RT frames from Linux. But that's only for
clarification.

Could you try the experimental e1000 driver as well?

Disable it via the same mechanism - or simply do not load rtmac.ko when
starting RTnet.
