Description Joachim Selke 2007-02-11 12:20:19 UTC
I'm running FC6/x86_64. Since kernel 2.6.19-1.2895 my network card stops working
at irregular intervals. No data gets transmitted anymore then. Every few minutes
I have to restart the network interface via "service network restart" or
"service NetworkManager restart" (I use NetworkManager, but the problem also
occurs if NetworkManager is disabled). /var/log/messages shows no messages when
the problem occurs. (How can I can get debug messages?)

With kernel 2.6.18-1.2869 everything works fine. I also compiled the latest
development kernel on my system (2.6.20-1.2922) but there the problem also occurs.

My hardware: ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe (Athlon 64 X2, NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI MCP), see
http://www.asus.com/products_print.aspx?model=1160&modelmenu=2 for further details.

I included the dmesg logs for any kernel version mentioned above. I also
attached the output of "lcpci -v" (executed under kernel 2.6.18).

There also might be a connection to other bugs already filed in bugzilla: bug
223418, bug 224186, bug 224549, bug 224680, bug 226705. All these bug reports
mention the error message "JMB361: dma_base is invalid" that is related to
JMicron JMB363 SATA controllers. I also get this message with kernel 2.6.19 but
neither with 2.6.18 nor with 2.6.20 ...

Please tell me what to do next. I will provide any information needed.
