Public bug reported:

Upgrading from Gutsy to Hardy caused the sinewave pattern and effected
performance. (The occurred in Gutsy as well.) I downloaded the new
e1000e (0.2.95?) driver, compiled and installed. My network is working
as expected.

In Gutsy i downloaded the e1000 driver and installed it and fixed the problem.
During this make install i got a 'catman' error and placed the files in the 
directory myself.
