Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-5
Severity: normal
Hi,
I tried upgrading my lenny box from 2.6.25 to 2.6.26 and it doesn't work
really well, especially from the network pov.
The box uses the r8169 module:
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E PCI
Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02)
When booting the 2.6.26, I have:

[ 2.270387] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

Then, during all the session, I get:
[ 96.170038] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
[ 96.985210] r8169: eth0: link up
[ 126.813323] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
[ 127.666630] r8169: eth0: link up
and eth0 never transmit anything.
Rebooting under 2.6.25 works fine. I'm using the latest 2.6.26 in Lenny (2.6.26-5).
As it's a production server I can't easily test and do bisect test on this.
Cheers,
