        Okay.  Sorry for the duplicate.  I just wasn't sure if
anyone saw the first one.

        Yes, it is an e1000.  I disabled TSO via ethtool.  Do I
need to reboot or anything and do this right away to avoid
problems or will the few assertions I've seen thus far not cause
any badness in the kernel?
