Description Edward Haletky 2007-06-22 17:33:46 UTC
Description of problem:

RealTek 8169 GigE, r8169 network driver will hang the system during dhcp until
the cable is physically removed whether at boot or single user mode.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.21-1.3228.fc7

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load RealTek 8169 GigE adapter into machine
2.boot system (hangs when starting network)
3.ifup eth0 (hangs system when trying to configure)
  
Actual results:
Network should come up very quickly just like it did on FC6

Expected results:
Same as Fedora Core 6. A working network.

Additional info:
Fedora Core 6 works just fine. Fedora Core 7 has gone backwards.

Hello,

I'm reviewing this bug as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to
isolate current bugs in the fedora kernel.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage

I'm closing as suggested as there has been no comment to indicate otherwise.

Cheers
Chris
