OK. Thread on LKML has ended with this
(you can browse down it a bit also).


I don't know if pci mmconfig patch was reverted in 2.6.18.1 (it wasn't
according to kernel.org's changelog) debian tree (also didn't see that).

If you can, please revert it and try to get bug or more info.
2.6.19-rcX has that patch reverted, see commit:
7bd656d12119708b37414bf909ab2995473da818

If this will solve your problem, this should go to 2.6.18-4.

Thanks.

Bug#396185: sky2 network driver freezes

2006-10-30 Thread Adrian Johnson 
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.18-4~snapshot.7648

I have experienced a network freeze of the sky2 network driver
The console error message is:

NETDEV WATCHDOG : eth0: transmit timed out
sky2 eth0: tx timeout
sky2 hardware hung? flushing

According to lspci my network device is

05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8053 PCI-E
Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 19)

I can recover from the freeze by unloading and reloading the sky2 module.

I originally reported this in bug 394254. It was suggested I try 2.6.18.
 I had no problems with 2.6.18 for a few days and thought the problem
had been fixed. However it has reappeared again.
