Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64 Version: 2.6.24-5 Severity: important With 2.6.23 and 2.6.24 the onboard ethernet on my brothers desktop PC no longer works. The system announces the link is up then soon afterwards announces a timeout then announces it is up again and the process repeats endlessly.
The network situation is bad enough that the system is unable to pick up it's IP by DHCP, I don't know if any packets are getting out at all but I suspect not. The machine is connected to a 10 megabit hub LSPCI has the following to say about the controller 00:0d.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10) The motherboard manual claims it is an epox 8HDA series board, I haven't taken the lid off to find out exactly which model. With 2.6.22 the network works fine 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8T800Pro Host Bridge 00:00.1 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
