2.6.7-rc1 breaks forcedeth

I use the forcedeth driver for my nVidia ethernet successfully with kernel 2.6.6. I recently tested 2.6.7-rc1, and when using it the ethernet does not work, and I see this in dmesg:

eth1: forcedeth.c: subsystem: 01043:80a7 bound to 0000:00:04.0
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out

I can ping localhost and the device's IP number, but I cannot ping other systems' IP numbers.

Thanks.

Lee.
