found 511963 2.6.26-13
tag 511963 ipv6
thank you
I found #506419 (cloned to 509156, set to wishlist) which is about
exactly the same issue:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=506419
Strange enough that bug did not show up in my search. Anyway, #506419
contains extra information, as well as another link to kerneltrap:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2008/10/16/3674714
It seems this issue is only Bridge + IPv6 related and it not related to
do with the specific network card/driver. At least, I can reproduce
immediately with latest lenny 2.6.26-13 on different hardware. The first
box using tg3, this one is a SuperMicro system with "nVidia Corporation
MCP55" chipset, like the system #506419 was originally about. Hm it
could be SuperMicro related, I'll try to reproduce on some other system
tomorrow.
Also in this case, issuing `ethtool -K eth0 gso off` is a workaround
now, but probably not a solution. ;]
