Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic

Hi,

here is the dmesg of the boot, regarding tg3 loading and the card getting up. 
As you can see it takes a while...
this is with edgy, I believe I installed some of these box with dapper in the 
past and I did not notice such slowness, so maybe it's edgy only.
the slowness can be noticed during boot when dhclient is started, instead of 
immediately showing immediately the dhclient output :
"For info, please visit http://www.isc.org/sw/dhcp/
Listening on LPF/eth0/00:18:8b:1e:de:ac
dhclient: Sending on   LPF/eth0/00:18:8b:1e:de:ac ..."

it sits for a while on "Listening on", it looks like it can't get acces
to eth0 to get the mac address.

this is edgy with all updates as of today of course :
Linux xxxxxx 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Tue Dec 5 22:28:26 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
I have repeatedly seen this over at least 3 machines of this kind.
I also tried changing the other side of the network link (the switch), it did 
not change this behavior at all.
