Description of problem: I have a SunFireV40Z (4xAMD Opteron Dual Core) with 16 GB memory running FC4. When using konqueror as webbrowser I saw it hanging if connecting to some sites. I found out the "ifconfig eth0" presents some IPV6 settings. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebase-3.5.2-0.1.fc4 How reproducible:Each time when connecting with konqueror to some site supporting IPV6 Steps to Reproduce: 1.See above 2. 3. Actual results: Konqueror hangs Expected results: Konqueror display the desired website Additional info: I think this results from the fact that the NIC is configured with IPV6 support: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:09:3D:13:CF:4F inet addr:131.246.137.16 Bcast:131.246.137.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::209:3dff:fe13:cf4f/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:32596073 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:41284982 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:11297416968 (10.5 GiB) TX bytes:29202868514 (27.1 GiB) Interrupt:22 The problem disappears if switching off the IPV6 support (adding the line "alias net-pf-10 off" to /etc/modprobe.conf).
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
Can't reproduce the behavior under FC6!
