Please test and give feedback here.

** Description changed:

- 
  on a freshly installed dapper/x86_64 install, the e1000 supported intel  Intel Pro/1000 PT
  Server NIC was detected and configured, link gets detected, but it doesn't seem to receive ethernet frames (although the RX packet counters do increase, but no rx frame shows up in tcpdump)
  
  alas it's a remote system which I don't have physical access to right
  now, so I can't easily try out a 32bit kernel, in order to verify my
  suspicion that it's simply a 64bit-bug kernel driver bug...
