Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.24-5
Severity: important

With 2.6.23 and 2.6.24 the onboard ethernet on my brothers desktop PC no 
longer works. The system announces the link is up then soon afterwards 
announces a timeout then announces it is up again and the process 
repeats endlessly.

The network situation is bad enough that the system is unable to pick up 
it's IP by DHCP, I don't know if any packets are getting out at all but 
I suspect not.

The machine is connected to a 10 megabit hub

LSPCI has the following to say about the controller
00:0d.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)

The motherboard manual claims it is an epox 8HDA series board, I haven't 
taken the lid off to find out exactly which model.

With 2.6.22 the network works fine

Thanks for the feedback, marking that version as fixed.
