Yeah, the ixgb driver in the tree doesn't see it.  I got a new driver 
from jfv a few months ago which worked but had very bad performance 
problems.  At that point I hit a different panic and hydra2 is still 
offline (waiting for Jeff to free up some cycles), so I havent followed 
up with him recently.
