[Bug 572249] Re: Hard freeze on large file transfers with Atheros AR8132 / L1c

[Tim Towers]

[SOLVED] (I hope... I've now transfered 15Gb of data without a lockup,
it usually locks after 250Mb)

I found a possible solution in http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-
netdev/2009/10/6/6256977/thread where Jay mentions to add pci=nomsi to
the boot parameters.

To implement this I edited /etc/default/grub to include the following line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux acpi_brightness=vendor pci=nomsi"
then ran update-grub2 as usual so that it took effect.

I have just remembered I am still running the atl1e source-built driver,
I will try with the stock Ubuntu driver.
