Package: wicd-daemon
Version: 1.7.0+ds1-5+squeeze3
Severity: important
Hi,
I work with two switches, one HP 1810 series, one HP 2910al series.
Connecting to the 1810 switch works like a charm: I select the
connection, then press "connect", and I'm connected. With the bigger
switch, I select the network, press "connect", then see how eth0 loses
link, then I get the disconnect bubble message, then link goes up again,
and I even see traffic. With network-manager, this problem does not
occur - with the same laptop, cable, and switch port (!). I can safely
rule out hardware problems, as simply stopping wicd and starting
network-manager solves the problem in this case. My laptop is a T500, so
it's only gigabit ethernet involved, on all sides.
But I would like to only use wicd, as I usually find it to be much more
reliable.
Kind regards,
--Toni++
