Package: linux-2.6 Severity: important When attempting to install with d-i daily builds (or hand built d-i images) via the network I find that I am unable to use r8189 network controllers which had ethernet cables connected at modprobe time. The system detects the three r8169 controllers that are present and detects link state on them correctly (as reported in dmesg).
ifconfig reports that an ethernet controller which had the cable connected at modprobe time has dropped a small number of transmitted packets and 0xffffffff (roughly) received packets with no successful traffic. Controllers not cabled at modprobe time appear to work with no ill effects. uname -r reports this as version 2.6.18-4-486. This appeared to work fine with 2.6.18-3-486. Severity important since this has a major effect on d-i usability. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
