Marvell 88E8071 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet / packet_write_wait: Connection to ...: Broken pipe



Hi,

I've got an Acer Cube and experience the following problem:
Multiple Debian systems are installed: lenny, squeeze, wheezy, jessie; all four are almost bare base systems. The first two, lenny and squeeze, funktion without any problems. The last two, wheezy and jessie, start without problems, and also let me to connect over SSH. But after 1-2 minutes the client terminal freezes and the outputs this error message: "packet_write_wait: Connection to 192.168.1.2: Broken pipe". The network activity LED on the box is flushing permanently. After that, no more connections are accepted, the only way to access the system is a reboot using the power button.

This command, if executed right after login, seems to delay the problem by a minute or so:
# ethtool -K eth0 tso off

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
