Realtek NIC patch to try

[Matthew Dillon]

Yah, unfortunately the patch didn't fix the 'chip stops working every month
or so' problem on my server (not a big deal, I have other NICs on that box
that I can move the ethernet cable to).  But it didn't break anything new,
either.  So in that respect it certainly doesn't hurt :-)
