[Bug 42572] Re: e1000 driver on thinkpad X60/T60 produces latency

Updating my T60's BIOS did nothing for this issue (I'm running Debian,
2.6.18-6). The only thing that fixed it was to update the e1000 driver.
I had the same alternating latency, and transferring files over Samba
was deathly slow.

The driver updates are at SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42302

Note that the LATEST STABLE, 8.0.1, DID NOT FIX the issue. I went back
two versions just to try it out, to 7.6.15.4.

I don't know what changed in the driver -- some default setting?
Something else?

Hope this helps track down the issue.
