You need to prepare more extensive bug report, for starters. What are "connection speed troubles"? Which kernel version? Do you see any "interesting" messages in kernel log? lspci output? ethtool output? etc... -- vda - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
