I apologize for hijacking this thread, but I've been meaning to ask  
this question for a while now.  I suspect that the e1000 driver in  
CentOS 4.4 is the culprit for at least some of the strange hangs I  
have been seeing.  What is the recommended way to install the latest  
e1000 driver on a CentOS system?
