Bug#775211: linux: Driver mv643xx_eth_port requests probe deferral
Hi Ian,
thank you for responding to this issue. After i recognized the
connection loss, i attached a serial console and monitored the eth ports
with ethtool. Swapping the cable between eth0 and eth1. eth0 was always
dead with no link detection. eth1 was always working fine. I
quadrochecked it a few minutes ago and what should i say... it works
again.. yay.. :/ I have no idea why it works again. After some reboots
and rattling on the cables everything still works and i cant reproduce
the issue. Unfortunately, i did a lot of changes, uninstalls and updates
since then.
Well, thanks again for the response and your time!
I don't know if you want to do more research now on this issue, just for
the case here are the requested infos:
The probe deferrals are still in dmesg.
Last working version was the one from the current up to date wheezy
repos. I don't remember the exact number.
