Felipe, let me be clear on this.
I first noticed this *bug* (and that is indeed what it was) in my Ubuntu 6.06
LTS Server Edition installation.
Rather than report it to Ubuntu, I tried building the latest revision of the
e1000 driver to see would this cure it.
As it did not, I took the trouble of collaborating directly with the
e1000 driver people on SourceForge and we eventually identified the
problem and found a fix....after many long hours of effort, I might add.
As of now, Ubuntu has a serious bug in the stock Dapper e1000 driver.
When I say serious, I am not being flippant. This bug was assigned high
priority by the e1000 driver team and there is good reason to believe
that the fix will solve many other issues apart from mine.
Forgive me for my ignorance, but are you saying that:
A stock driver bug should *not* be reported on the Ubuntu bug tracking system?
In other words, Ubuntu does not want to know about it.
or
A bug, for which a fix has been found, should *not* be reported on the Ubuntu
bug tracking system?
In other words, Ubuntu will somehow automatically update its stock driver.
