Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.20-8-server
Install Ubuntu Edgy on Dell PowerEdge 2900 with BNX2 NICs. Install SSH and access it. Use a command like TOP or PS FAXWW. In my case this will crash the network operations of this server. Work around: Edit rc.local and add the line: rmmod bnx2 && /etc/init.d/networking stop && modprobe bnx2 && /etc/init.d/networking start && /etc/init.d/ssh restart This solves the issue. With out this line it will break BNX2/Network. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers edgy APT policy: (700, 'edgy'), (650, 'feisty'), (500, 'edgy-updates'), (500, 'edgy-security'), (500, 'edgy-backports') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.20-8-server Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Work around: Edit rc.local and add the line: rmmod bnx2 && /etc/init.d/networking stop && modprobe bnx2 && /etc/init.d/networking start && /etc/init.d/ssh restart This solve the issue.
