Bookwom backports has linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64. You might try that.
https://backports.debian.org/

It just so happens I have one of the same beasties. I just plugged it
in to a machine running kernel 6.6.13+bpo-amd64, unplugged it, waited
20 seconds, and plugged it in to another machine running kernel
6.5.0-0.deb12.4-amd64. I then plugged it into a machine with
6.6.13+bpo-amd64. All three times I got a MAC address of
8c:ae:4c:d6:22:17. So either of those kernels might well work for you.

Help to report a bug related to a usb3 lan adapter driver

2024-04-15 Thread user7415 same
Hello,

I'm not very skilled in what concerns to kernel patching and compiling.

I had a discussion in stack exchange related to the problem that is well
explained here:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/774594/debian-12-all-of-sudden-my-usb3-lan-adapter-get-assigned-random-mac-address-ea

For what I understood the problem was fixed in 6.8, but I'm using debian 12
that will never use that so much new kernel I guess, could you help me to
report officially the bug so that the upstream channel will correct it by
the 6.1.0-22 version ?

Thank you very much!
