Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-46
Severity: important
Hello,
first, I can not check, if Wheezy is also affected.
Using ESXi 5.0 with Linux guests (in this case many amd64 Squeeze
machines with three vmxnet3 adapter for each VM) could cause package
drops, here especially on using UDP (name resolving). So I saw that some
machines produced ~ 20 drops / day.
This has been fixed by VMware last week:

Could you please adopt this fix for Squeeze (maybe also Wheezy)?
Cheers

Version: 3.4.1-1~experimental.1+rm
Debian 6.0 Long Term Support has now ended, and the 'linux-2.6' source
package will no longer be updated. This bug is being closed on the
assumption that it does not affect the kernel versions in newer Debian
releases.
If you can still reproduce this bug in a newer release, please reopen
the bug report and reassign it to 'src:linux' and the affected version
of the package. You can find the package version for the running
kernel by running:
uname -v
or the versions of all installed kernel packages by running:
dpkg -l 'linux-image-[34]*' | grep ^.i
and looking at the third column.
I apologise that we weren't able to provide a specific resolution for
this bug.
Ben.
