Thanks for your response.

> Please try a recent kernel. Your r8169 driver is badly outdated.
OK. Now using 2.6.24-1-amd64. The r8169 version still says 2.2LK-NAPI, though.

No, but if changes were made to the iniatialization of the chipset in the 
current driver (mine was 2.2LK), this might do the trick. The problem is that 
the error is rather erratic and unreproducible.

Anyway, how to best upgrade the kernel in debian (without problems, of course)? 
The problem right now is that every apt-get upgrade reverts the r8169 driver to 
the old one...

FW: r8169 auto-negotiation problem

2008-02-02 Thread fgnijuhhu guduggurehug

Hello

I already posted my problem and what I did to solve it on 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=461429 . In essence the 
6.004.00-NAPI version from the Realtek site fixed it until now. My request is 
only that you try to get this version included in the kernel.
