I had to jump through some hoops to update the BIOS (since the updater was a Windows binary and this machine does not have Windows on it). But I finally sorted something out.
dmidecode output: 68PDV Ver. F.20 12/08/2011 The adapter seems to be stable now. I brought it up, did some pings, even some file transfers. I have not seen even a hint of a problem yet. The machine at work this adapter was causing problems with was also a HP so maybe it too needed a BIOS update. I am surprised, but thankful that it's working now. Thanks. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1547838 Title: ADMtek ADM8511 "Pegasus II" USB Ethernet causes oops To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1547838/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
