Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic


found in kubuntu/intepid from today, kernel 2.6.27-7.11

My onboard ethernet chip r8169 (pciid: 10ec:8168) reports a lot of
dropped packages,  beside it works fine:

e.g. ifconfig eth0 gives:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1f:c6:36:a9:60
          inet addr:192.168.0.137  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::21f:c6ff:fe36:a960/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

          Interrupt:254 Base address:0x4000

I manualy applied this patch from netdev-trunk:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=523a609496dbc3897e530db2a2f27650d125ea00;hp=e93dcb11dd6468000f2f018bd887e94b074ce931

which fixes it.
