Do you know if that card requires an igb or the e1000 driver?  Run 
'ethtool -i ethX' (ethX being the device in question) that will tell you 
which driver is running for that device.

Joonwoo released an updated click pollable e1000-7.6.15.5 driver.  I 
released an igb pollable driver as well.  If you search the mailing 
list, you will find these drivers.
