I can confirm this bug on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) with the latest updates installed (as of today). Reproduced on a IBM Thinkpad X60s (model 1704-3DU, BIOS version 2.17).
Doing network transfers of >5GB data seems to be a reliable way of triggering the lockup. Manually building the latest e1000e module, using source from http://e1000.sf.net/ , and loading that instead of the Ubuntu shipped e1000 and e1000e modules resolved the issue on this system (used e1000e-0.4.1.7.tar.gz ). -- Hard lock when module e1000 in use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226906 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
