Seems that there is also a workaround for this problem, using ethtool to tell the driver no to log so many things. So the only question is : Is a message telling you every 10 seconds that the cable is not plugged in really needed?¿ should it be enabled by default?
I mean: it's a useful message when you have really serious problems on a connection and you can't get it working. BUT, on a normal system, (for example a desktop with a wireless card that almost doesn't use the ethernet port) is this message needed? or it just makes the log file bigger and bigger every 10 seconds? My opinion, and the opinion of some users that reported this as a problem on other forums, is that this message is really useless on a system. And anyway it would be used only in special occasions, so why is it enabled by default? -- PHY reset until link up excesive log on dmesg https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/270184 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
