I also got it with 2.6.10-rc2; it is a known problem with the e1000
driver and you can try turning off TCP TSO with ethtool or increase the
vm_max_bytes(search mailing list for exact file).

Alternatively, revert to 2.6.8.1.

This is unusual enough to report, but not a sign of a problem in
isolation. If you get a large number of these (e.g. the console is
flooded with these and the system is unresponsive) there may be
something to worry about.
