There is no output from dmesg, but it occasionally recovers and moves a few more packets before stalling again. Luis suggested reverting eb9d4e8399181357cb6f6625ba7f849987432c6c which I did. Now it appears to work normally. I also think this patch should be broken into multiple pieces. There appear to be at least 3 functional changes addressed in this single patch. rtg -- Tim Gardner tim.gardner@canonical.com
