Public bug reported: New install xubuntu 7.10 crashes whenever the network is used much, eg light websurfing ok, big web pages or package operations crash machine I had to unplug network to get install to finish or it crashed when updating repositories Machine is dual 400Mhz Celeron in Abit motherboard, Dlink DFE-528 TX network card, problem does not show on another single processor machine installed from the same CD Works fine with Zenwalk 4.6 ( a 2.6.21.3 kernal) installed so its not a hardware problem Both kernals use the driver 8139too for the network card.
Looks like a race condition in the driver or network stack, I wish you good luck finding it ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- smp machine crashes on network use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159494 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
