Hi,

Just to up my problem, I always need help.
Do you think it could be a driver incompatibility ?

I remember, I already do that conf a year ago. I used other hardware
with drivers r8169, e1000e and tg3 (only 2 of them but I don't
remember which ones).

Here my OVS setup:
# modprobe openvswitch_mod.ko
# ovsdb-tool create /etc/openvswitch/conf.db
/usr/share/openvswitch/vswitch.ovsschema
# ovsdb-server /usr/local/etc/ovs-vswitchd.conf.db \
                     --remote=punix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock \
                     --remote=db:Open_vSwitch,managers \
                     --private-key=db:SSL,private_key \
                     --certificate=db:SSL,certificate \
                     --bootstrap-ca-cert=db:SSL,ca_cert \
                     --pidfile --detach
# ovs-vsctl --no-wait init
# ovs-vswitchd unix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock \
                     --pidfile --detach

I check log and I cannot see anything. Can I start OVS more verbosely ?

Doude.
