[afnog] Error on network card on FreeBSD 6.1

[David Peall]

Hi

Try moving to 6.2 release or compile the new bce driver in current
release ?

http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.2R/relnotes-i386.html
<snip>
Some improvements have been made to the bce(4) driver to improve its
stability. One user-visible aspect of these changes is that
transmit-side checksum offload involving IP fragments has been disabled,
because it was not handled correctly by the hardware.
