Someone reported that Win2K3 driver can be made working, but I''ve not tested this myself. -- Mats>K.

There is a CRC bug in the RTL8139 implementation in the QEMU used in 3.1 There have been discussions of this on the QEMU list, as well. We have a patch for 3.1, but have not ported it forward to unstable yet, since unstable is using a newer version of QEMU. If there is interest in seeing the 3.1 patch, I''d be happy to post it.

It looks like its the same patch as 15596. We must have pulled the patch from the qemu list, without realizing it was in unstable.
