I haven't tried this card on another gigE switch.  However, the same
switch port on the same switch did not exhibit these problems with the
myk driver under 6.X.  At least as far as I know my desk port was not
moved in the IDF.

This does not help.  I tried 1000BaseTX/full, 100BaseTX/full, and
100BaseTX/half.  All three exhibited the same problem with constantly
incrementing input errors.
