Roy, Ben, with latest e1000.c my 82541ER connected to a MPC5200 via PCI is no longer working correctly - I get timeouts after few packets. After having a quick look at the code changes it's obvious that I can't figure out the problem quickly since there has been a lot of changes.

Have you tried some PCI cards after the PCIe changes ? Any ideas ?
