You're perfectly right... I just took out the riser card and plugged the
controller into the pci slot of the board directly - all problems gone,
even with txc/rxc turned on.
I still do not know how the riser interfers with the checksum offloading,
but I guess I should look out for a better riser card - although Wilkos
comment already lets me fear that there is no such thing as a "good" riser
card...
