Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-3
Severity: normal
I installed linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 on my etch system to try and help vet
it a bit. I immediately had two problems that look network related. The
first was that xterms I opened on another local machine were garbled so
badly that I could not use them. The fonts were all garbled, the prompt
was messed up, etc.
The second issue was that my IMAP connection to a local machine was also
having serious corruption issues. It would show the headers, but when I
went to look at the messages, everything would go blank. (This was in
kmail.) Reverting back to 2.6.22-6~bpo40+2 made everything happy again.
So I realize I'm assuming two things - 1) that the kernel was at fault - it
was the only thing that changed, and 2) that it was the networking that was
wonky, and not something else.
Here is some info about the hardware:
