To make things clear: on that machine, there was stock opensuse 11.1 distro kernel which is 2.6.27-based (no b43fcd7dc7b). I needed to debug a wireless bug, so I kexec'ed wireless-testing (contains 4a865905f already). So in fact, 4a865905f from the testing kernel triggered a bug fixed in near past by b43fcd7dc7b. Did the other two e100* drivers suffer from the same and were fixed recently? It would render kexec pretty unusable from the older kernels if this is not going to be fixed anyhow :(. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ E1000-devel mailing list E1000-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/e1000-devel
