Forcedeth ethernet driver hangs



Hello,

I'm running kernel 2.6.14-2-amd64-k8 on a A8N-Sli with the 
latest nvidia kernel source package of
http://people.debian.org/~rdonald/nvidia unstable/amd64/
http://people.debian.org/~rdonald/nvidia unstable/all/

Today the ethernet connection stopped working after running the computer for
several hours with the message :
nv_stop_tx: TransmitterStatus remained busy<7>eth0: tx_timeout: dead
entries!

I had to unplug the computer and to reboot it to reset the lan interface. My
problem seems connected with 
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4552

It is the first time it is happening and I'm wondering if it is bad luck or
if 2.6.14 + nvidia-kernel-source is buggy and I should downgrade. Am I the
only one encountering forcedeth freeze.

Cheers,
Charles
