Nope.  It uses the tg3 module (the "Broadcom Tigon3 ethernet driver").

Well, the reason for enabling iptables was to use the laptop as a
wireless bridge so the ideal solution would include iptables and some
kind of driver for the ethernet port.  Are you still interested in the
results?  (I only ask because this debugging is somewhat academic at
this point--I bought a wireless NIC for the desktop, rather than using
the laptop as a bridge--so the effort to rebuild with iptables and
without the ethernet card is no longer as trivial as it would have
been.)
