Hey, Just got my hands on via-velocity pci-e card and tried to give it a go on new Asus Nvidia Ion2 board. Driver loads fine and everything seems good until device gets a link - kernel deadlocks instantly. During bootup hang seems to happen when persistent-net rules rename device to eth1, after bootup instantly when cable is plugged (first interrupt?). Any other quick suggestions other than to throw it away as DOA?

To debug, remove the udev rule that does renaming cd /lib/udev mkdir save; mv rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator-rules save and remove any rules rm /etc/udev/70-persistent-net.rules Then after bootup you can debug problem.
