Lucid:
Speed improvement clearly visible now. With this test kernel, I averaged 8.32 MB/s vs 3-4 MB/s with the current Lucid kernel. Also, the errors/warnings in the syslog have disappeared. ifconfig doesn't report any errors after 527,474 packets received, where the previous kernel would report ~160 errors/overruns for the same amount of data xfer.
I would say that this kernel is a good improvement. Now to get suspend/resume working (Bug #537083).

Karmic:
Same improvements seen here as in Lucid test kernel. Much better throughput. No more messages in syslog. No errors/overruns in ifconfig. Would be nice if we could get the video refresh issue fixed on this kernel (Bug #460419 & Bug #358956 - I think these may be related).

Overall, I would say these improvements are much better than the previous test kernels (fec_phy_speed1).
