[Bug 138611] Re: Sky2 ethernet failing randomly with Marvell 88E8056 gigabit

2008-03-23 Thread Russ Price
I dropped an RTL8169-based PCI card into the system and disabled the Marvell controller. This solved the lockup problem completely - and it also solved my problem with corrupted updates. Now I'm debating whether or not to return the motherboard and get something with a Realtek, Nvidia, or Intel co

I can reliably get my new system (XFX nForce 630i motherboard) with an integrated Marvell PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet controller to lock up HARD. All I have to do is FTP anything from another gigabit-equipped machine on my LAN, and the system instantly locks up requiring a hard reset. NFS transfers will

Actually, I suspect my ACPI temperature problem is a BIOS bug. I just found a new BIOS revision for my motherboard, and I'm trying it now - it may be a couple of days before I find out for sure if the new BIOS fixes it. In my case, the bad readings come at random times, sometimes for a few seconds,

I just had this happen while running MythTV with the 2.6.22-14.52 generic kernel, 32-bit x86, SMP in use (Athlon 64 X2 3800+, pcHDTV HD-5500, Abit AN-M2 mobo). Other than an ACPI temperature issue [1] that forces me to run with acpi=off, the system has been otherwise stable. Fortunately, the Dayto

To elaborate on what is happening on my Abit AN-M2 running Gutsy, I've plotted a graph of temperature readings. Note the 121 C spike in the ACPI reading that is not reflected in reading from lm_sensors. In this instance, the spike only lasted five seconds, not lasting long enough to force a shutdow

This is also happening in Gutsy with 2.6.22-14-generic (installed version 2.6.22-14.47) i386 on an Abit AN-M2 motherboard with an Athlon 64 X2 4800+. The lm_sensors readings are normal when this occurs, and a front panel temperature gauge which reads from a temperature probe stuck in the heat sink
