Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-k7 Version: 2.6.8-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
-- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages kernel-image-2.6.8-1-k7 depends on: ii coreutils [fileutils] 5.2.1-2 The GNU core utilities ii fileutils 5.2.1-2 The GNU file management utilities ii initrd-tools 0.1.73 tools to create initrd image for p ii module-init-tools 3.1-pre5-6 tools for managing Linux kernel mo -- no debconf information On 2 different systems with the same (sid) Debian distribution the connection speed is limited to (more or less) 100 Kbit/s when using 100 Mbit/s Ethernet cards. I have tried 2 different network cards on a machine and another card on a different machine (all 100 Mb/s cards) but with the same result. When I start the SAME systems (choosing from Lilo boot menu) the kernel 2.6.7-1-k7 all works as expected (connection at 100 Mbit/s), whereas when I started the kernel 2.6.8-1-k7 the connection is 1000 times slower. I don't know if the problem is common to the other flavours of the 2.6.8-1 kernel. Thank you, Arcangelo Labianca [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
