Hi again Francois!
No NFS but networking or no networking at all ?
Networking in itself was fine and stable, and with seemingly much better
performance in large file transfers as well.
NFS appeared to be working too, problem was just that workstation and
server couldn't agree on file
Hi again Francois!
2.6.22-rc7 does suspend-to-disk again ... and the bad news is, the reported
problem (link speed 100 not 1000 after resume from suspend-to-disk) is still
there when using 2.6.22-rc7 with your -rc6 driver patch.
The symptoms are the same as in 2.6.18 with unpatched r8169.

Hi Francois!
Sorry, returning to this issue took me longer than anticipated before I could

Hardly: the r8169 driver has been modified by ~40 patches from 2.6.18 to
now.

Unfortunately the driver that comes with 2.6.18 doesn't appear to support

Hello Francois!
Thanks for the quick reply.
Now after resume, the link is working OK but doesn't come back up to
normal gigabit operation. ifdown, unloading and reloading the r8169
module, and then ifup again fixes it.
Can you try 2.6.21-rc7 + (either):

Greetings!
I have a SuSE 10.2 64-bit installation that uses a Realtek PCI GbE chip in
D-Link disguise (lspci see below).
While this works rather well after a normal boot sequence, I don't get a
gigabit link after resume from standby or suspend-to-disk.
Entering standby, the link speed goes

Entering standby, the link speed goes down to 100 Mb as expected; the link
stays up during standby/suspend (for WOL purposes apparently).
Yes.
