Installation of the the Realtek 8139 network card also fails on my
computer. I'm running the version 2.6.15-23-386 kernel (Xubuntu 6.06).
When the boot stalls at "8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.27" I can get
past the hangup by removing and then reinserting the network cable. The
next message in the dmesg log ("PCI: Setting latency timer of device
0000:00:0b.0 to 64") is not displayed on the terminal until the boot
continues past the stall. Adding "irqpoll" and "noapic" to the boot
command line have no effect.The pertinent sequences from dmesg and lspci are shown in the attached 8139fail.txt. This same network card worked in this computer with the Breezy Badger release of Xubuntu. ** Attachment added: "dmesg and lspci output relevant to 8139 failure" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5447913/8139fail.txt -- kubuntu 6.06 LTS does not support Realtek 8139 network card https://launchpad.net/bugs/48456 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
