More interesting bits: lots of network traffic can cause the system to just be wonky, without actually killing the link.
Here is a summary of my experiences - Transfering big files over NFS will cause the NIC to no longer work. - Streaming video (Mythfrontend) will experience problems where the keyboard appears to get modifier keys (shift, etc) stuck on, and the finally cause the NIC to no longer work after a few more minutes. - Minor traffic (~20k/s of torrents) will cause the modifier keys to appear stuck on periodically. It seems that bidirectional traffic makes it worse than uni-directional, and that higher rates of transfer lead to more rapid failures. -- e1000 locks up under load in Feisty. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/106869 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
