I'm seeing the same problem on an ubuntu 12.10 x86-64 server. Random 1 second latencies and /sbin/ifconfig shows the RX dropped packet counter increasing with each stutter/lag.
An example ping: 100 packets transmitted, 100 received, 0% packet loss, time 98995ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.255/28.669/1915.588/210.376 ms, pipe 2 I'm seeing a dropped packet every 30 seconds or so. I've tried the mentioned fixes of turning off ACPI, pcie_aspm and setting the e1000e interuptthrottlerate without fixing it yet. My kernel is 3.5.0-18-generic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1018561 Title: e1000e needs updating due to 82574L keeps dropping RX packets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1018561/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
