Bug Description

Under 64bit hardy heron beta version, fresh install, with NVIDIA 680 SLi mobo,
the network won't start unless some additional parameter is given to the "forcedeth" driver: msi=0 msix=0
(the solution is from google, but in an eariler distro)

Not sure if it's the same on 32bit, but it happened on my ASUS Striker Extreme mobo (NVIDIA 680 SLi chipset)
