One user reported a single pause frame being sent. I have can't reproduce a hang with similar hardware, so am beginning to wonder if the problem is pause negotiation, and interoperability problems?? Maybe the receiver gets overloaded and sends one pause frame, but the switch can't really do flow control and gets stuck. I do stress tests with either a direct connect cable, or with a switch that does flow control and lots of packets and see the driver/hardware successfully doing flow control. -- Stephen Hemminger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Load was quite small - no huge transfers, just usual couple of ssh sessions to read mails, web. Switch is dlink dgs-1216t gigabit one which supports flow control (according to dlink spec). I will dump statistic and registers next time it happens - I do not know how to reproduce it on demand. > -- > Stephen Hemminger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Evgeniy Polyakov -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug with freeze also exists in 2.6.18-3 (package version 2.6.18-7) - no messages in dmesg, no interrupts. It is dual lan board with only one port being used. rmmod/modprobe sequence brings NIC back to working mode. -- Evgeniy Polyakov -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug still exists in 2.6.18-2 (package version 5). Can be 'fixed' by rmmod/modprobe sequence though. Is not easily reproducible.

I'm installing it right now, although package is called 2.6.18-1, but actual version is 2.6.18-3, so if it was based on 2.6.18.2+ then bug should be fixed. I will add more details if this situation appeares again, since I can not say that it is easily reproducible. P.S. I removed [EMAIL PROTECTED] e-mail from Cc, since I received bounce about unexistent domain bug.debian.org and MX record absence for it.

Just for clarification: there are at least two bugs described - one in the above link, and this new one. The former could only be fixed by reboot, the latter - by rmmod/modprobe sequence. The former had special info in dmesg, the latter does not. Hopefully they both are fixed in 2.6.18-2. I will set it up as soon as time permits (it is my main desktop, which is rarely turned off) and report if problem still persists. > thanks > > -- > maks -- Evgeniy Polyakov -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
