Re: [opensuse] Sun X2100 (nv)ethernet problem with SUSE 10.0

Hi, Peter Nixon schrieb:

We have a bunch of Sun X2100 opteron servers running SUSE 10.0 and one of them magically stopped responding to network requests in the middle of the night (after operating perfectly for 1 month). A power down solved the problem, however a simple reboot did not! The log messages are below.

Apr 3 11:42:56 server kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out Is anyone else have problems with the nv ethernet interface on their X2100 servers (and USB keyboards)?

Known problem, a fix is in the works. Note: All versions except SUSE Linux 10.0 do not have this bug. However, to not break anything, a simple down-/upgrade of the driver is not possible. Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/
