Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7 Version: 2.6.17-9 Severity: normal The Sky2 driver stops working while under load after some time. I get the following messages:
sky2 eth0: rx error, status 0x7ffc0001 length 932 sky2 eth0: rx error, status 0x7ffc0001 length 932 sky2 eth0: rx error, status 0x7ffc0001 length 932 A ping to an other server results in Destination Host not Reachable from my local machine. You can solve this situation by bringing down the interface, unloading the driver, loading the driver again and bringing up the interface. Just cycling the interface down and up is not enough. You get the following messages by doing this. First was cycling down and up. Second was down, reload driver and bringing network up again. --- First Step --- nfs: server ponder not responding, still trying nfs: server ponder not responding, still trying nfs: server ponder not responding, still trying nfs: server ponder not responding, still trying sky2 eth0: disabling interface bridge-eth0: disabling the bridge bridge-eth0: down sky2 eth0: enabling interface bridge-eth0: enabling the bridge bridge-eth0: up sky2 eth0: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex, flow control both sky2 unknown status opcode 0xe1 sky2 eth0: rx error, status 0x8329ddaf length 54500 eth0: no IPv6 routers present --- Second Step --- sky2 eth0: disabling interface bridge-eth0: disabling the bridge bridge-eth0: down ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:05:00.0 disabled ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:05:00.0[A] -> GSI 36 (level, low) -> IRQ 82 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:05:00.0 to 64 sky2 v1.6.1 addr 0xdc000000 irq 82 Yukon-EC (0xb6) rev 2 sky2 eth0: addr 00:13:d4:9d:66:1d sky2 eth0: enabling interface ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready bridge-eth0: enabling the bridge bridge-eth0: up sky2 eth0: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex, flow control both ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready eth0: no IPv6 routers present nfs: server ponder OK nfs: server ponder OK nfs: server ponder OK nfs: server ponder OK -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (1001, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-k7 Locale: LANG=de_CH.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_CH.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7 depends on: ii initramfs-tools [linux-initra 0.80 tools for generating an initramfs ii module-init-tools 3.2.2-3 tools for managing Linux kernel mo Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7 recommends: ii libc6-i686 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries [i -- debconf information: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/old-system-map-link-2.6.17-2-k7: true shared/kernel-image/really-run-bootloader: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/overwriting-modules-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/prerm/removing-running-kernel-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/kimage-is-a-directory: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/create-kimage-link-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/prerm/would-invalidate-boot-loader-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/already-running-this-2.6.17-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/failed-to-move-modules-2.6.17-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/bootloader-initrd-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/old-initrd-link-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/abort-overwrite-2.6.17-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/depmod-error-2.6.17-2-k7: false linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/old-dir-initrd-link-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/lilo-initrd-2.6.17-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/abort-install-2.6.17-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/bootloader-error-2.6.17-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/initrd-2.6.17-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/depmod-error-initrd-2.6.17-2-k7: false linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/lilo-has-ramdisk: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/postinst/bootloader-test-error-2.6.17-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7/preinst/elilo-initrd-2.6.17-2-k7: true Best Regards Matthias Kreis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
