Is EtherExpress Pro any better then EtherExpress? EtherExpress support
seems unreliable (despite the help comment in Linux source) at best
and often spews out warnings (2.2.x), IIRC about unexpected
interrupts. I asked about this on the linux-kernel mailing list and
was told problems were expected.
Still, I have to admit it seems to work OK, but I don't particularly
trust it either.
