Robert.

I am doing some wrapper scripts for pktgen for some testing purposes.

My test rig is two machines with an e100 card, connected by crossover cable.

When i run pktgen, the error counter == packet count, always. 

Adding printk's, i see the error is coming from this bit past line 2688:
----------

                now = getCurUs();
                if (now > pkt_dev->next_tx_us) {
                        /* TODO: this code is slightly wonky.  */
                        pkt_dev->errors++;
                        pkt_dev->next_tx_us = now - pkt_dev->delay_us;
                        pkt_dev->next_tx_ns = 0;
                }
----------------
Any suggestions? More info if needed..
