Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic
Hi,
In my sony vaio sz2hp, booting with 2.6.17-10 loads the sky2 driver,
which stops transmitting after a relatively short time, even with a
small load. My mileage varies...
However, if I boot with 2.6.17-7, the sk98lin driver is loaded instead
and the network card works fine (or so I perceive).
Here goes the relevant section of lspci -vv, taken with 2.6.17-7 (with
which I can actually access the network):
