[Bug 404708] Re: Broadcom BCM5906M ethernet adapter (tg3) hangs under heavy tcp load (bittorrent) when generic segmentation offload (gso) is in use

[Marc A. Donges]

mainline/v2.6.34-rc2-karmic/linux-
image-2.6.34-020634rc2-generic_2.6.34-020634rc2_i386.deb

crashes less than one second into the boot.

In

mainline/v2.6.32.9/linux-
image-2.6.32-02063209-generic_2.6.32-02063209_i386.deb

the problem still exists.

In

mainline/v2.6.33/linux-
image-2.6.33-020633-generic_2.6.33-020633_i386.deb

the problem is gone (transferred several Gigabytes with SSH without a
MAC error), however, I cannot use that kernel because wl.ko for the WLAN
interface Broadcom BCM4312 fails to build for it.
