Hi, it seems the last mm patches for 2.6.8.1 have caused my network card (Realtek 8139) to go buggy.
When downloading big files (say ftp.kernel.org last kernel) the card will begin downloading at fullspeed of my adsl line, but it will start slowing down the speed, down to zero.
I can't see this effect on the vanilla 2.6.8.1 kernel, but it seems to happen on both -mm3 & -mm4 that I tested. I'm not using any traffic shaping and I even tried to disable quite a few network features trying to solve it with no good results.
I wish I could provide more info than this, but dmesg doesn't seem to show any problems, and I really don't know how to provide more useful data on this. Please let me know if I can help with debugging this or providing more data somehow
Unai
