This seems to be a bug in the e1000 kernel module, see http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=114368730330622&w=2 for more info. Looks like this bug was still present up to and including kernel version 2.6.16. Not sure if it has been fixed since, but I'm not getting these kernel warnings on another server of mine running a 2.6.21 kernel and using an e1000 NIC.
The following post suggests that a work around is to run 'ethtool -K ethX tso off': http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=114324941105614&w=2 . I haven't tried this out yet, but will report back once I've got results on this. -- kernel failed assertions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/165152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
