[Bug 264019] Re: unable to visit some websites and ftpsites with 2.6.27

[John Lee]

Yuk, I just encountered this problem when doing an 'update'  using
update manager - it works ok for some sites but then the transfer rate
goes to zero for others! I'm going through a BT Voyager 2500 11g router
via Talktalk broadband - not sure which the buggy router is  Because
it's site specific, it works ok via same wireless router for my 2nd
ubuntu system, but I'm going to turn timstamps off anyway.

It's mentioned in the release notes as if it is a minor issue- there
must e a lot of ubuntu users using oldish home routers - this is going
to cause new ibexers a lot of problems, especially if they don't read
the release notes carefully  so I really think that the default should
be  with timestamps off until the kernel fix is found.  It also should
certainly be mentioned in the technical overview 'issues' so people are
more likly to see it.

Regards John
