I did/do have libpcap-dev installed.

Here is the error again:
rockenfield:~# tcpdump -vv -i eth3

tcpdump: pcap_loop: corrupted frame on kernel ring mac offset 94 + caplen 428 > frame len 160

If there is more information you'd like, let me know and I'll gladly post it.

It looks like this is my problem, which was kindly posted by Matthew Babcock:

I am running the amd64 version of the kernel.  I have tried to build libpcap on my own but I'm not the best builder and 
had some problems.  I will contact the Debian folks and see what's going on.

Thanks,
