tdurack@zeta:~$ sudo ethtool -k eth0
Offload parameters for eth0:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: on
scatter-gather: off
tcp segmentation offload: off

tdurack@zeta:~$ sudo ethtool -K eth0 tx off

tdurack@zeta:~$ sudo ethtool -k eth0
Offload parameters for eth0:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: off
scatter-gather: off
tcp segmentation offload: off

Ethtool works, what it's really doing is a different matter.
