Bug#624794: Missing support for various storage and network
Regarding possible support for the Intel 82579LM and 82579V in Squeeze: Many (but not all) devices including an Intel 82579 series NIC have a hardware fault at 100Mbps that results in packet loss that is worked around by the following recent patch: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/109926/ Upstream commit: 0ed013e28fe853244f4972cf18d8e2bd62eeb8fc It would be necessary to cherry pick this in order for these NICs to function at 100Mbps. More detail is provided in bug #644096. Thanks, Terry -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
