The same problem is happening on FC2. something is not right with module? However it only affect Transmission OUT and not Receiving. I can Receiving a Files very fast but can't transmis them.
I can't even get this card to get a DHCP address on FC 2 AMD64 install. Makes the whole machine run very slow, the second I do service network stop, machine (gnome, xterm etc) all start blazing away.
any improvement with the latest 2.6.10 updates ?
I'm no longer using that mobo, So I can't have any more info.
