Package: kernel-image-2.4.18-newpmac Version: 2.4.18-1woody5 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
When I run /etc/init.d/networking restart on my system the network dies. It appears to come up properly - the interface is up and configured, the routing tables appear proper, etc - but I can't actually get anywhere. I have tested a few things and discovered that simply running "ifconfig eth0 down; ifconfig eth0 up" causes the same problem, so it appears that the driver simply doesn't like to be turned back on after being turned off. I know the settings are proper as I'm able to get networking after a reboot. As far as I have been able to find rebooting is the only way to fix the problem once it crops up. This system is a Mac G4 with a Broadcom integrated gigabit nic. (BCM5400 PHY) I also tried the 2.4.18-powerpc kernel and it had the same failure. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: powerpc Kernel: Linux aladdin 2.4.18-newpmac #1 Fri Apr 9 14:30:55 UTC 2004 ppc Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
