-- no debconf information
On 2 different systems with the same (sid) Debian distribution the
connection speed is limited to (more or less) 100 Kbit/s when using
100 Mbit/s Ethernet cards.
I have tried 2 different network cards on a machine and another card
on a different machine (all 100 Mb/s cards) but with the same result.
When I start the SAME systems (choosing from Lilo boot menu) the kernel
2.6.7-1-k7 all works as expected (connection at 100 Mbit/s), whereas
when I started the kernel 2.6.8-1-k7 the connection is 1000 times slower.
I don't know if the problem is common to the other flavours of the 2.6.8-1
kernel.
Thank you,

This is most likely caused by /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_default_win_scale
not being 0, which is fixed in -4. If it's not fixed, reopen (and
provide some information).
