Not sure if this is a bug or not, and have no ideas what modules that are involved. I can NOT make my network card work with RedHat Linux v. 6.0. Hardware is Alpha (miata) and I get following error if I try to ping: PING 192.168.1.72 (192.1.1.72): 56 data bytes ping(539): unaligned trap at 0000000120002b04: 0000000120117324 29 1 ping(539): unaligned trap at 0000000120002b2c: 000000012011731c 29 2 64 bytes from 199.33.245.54: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.9 ms wrong data byte #8 should be 0x8 but was 0x6f c d e f 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1a 1b 1c 1d 1e 1f 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 2a 2b 2c 2d 2e 2f 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 64 bytes from 199.33.245.54: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.6 ms wrong data byte #8 should be 0x8 but was 0x26 c d e f 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1a 1b 1c 1d 1e 1f 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 2a 2b 2c 2d 2e 2f 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (This is cut from http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/net/9905.2/0067. html - which seams to have the same problem) The link lamp is then turned of on the HUB, and I have to reboot to turn it on. Can not my alpha from other computers. Works OK with VMS and Tru64 UNIX. Best regards Ulf Holt
This is a ping problem, not a problem with your card. Install the latest netkit-base-0.10-35 from Raw Hide.
