[Bug 279102] Re: Unreliable network connection with B44 driver

[martyscholes]

I can confirm this is still an issue and appears to be network load
related and not Compiz-specific.

As I type this I am attempting an iSCSI install of Ubuntu 10.10 using
Ubuntu 10.04 netboot binaries on a Dell Inspiron 600m and the link is
constantly being reset, presumably by the iSCSI traffic.

This is a netboot install, so the graphics are text-only and there is no
sound or wireless.

The only way to get past the mkfs portion of the install was to force
the network to 10Mb at the switch.

The laptop is currently installing packages, causing the link to go up
and down.  I just reset the switch port to 10Mb and the NIC is very
slow, but working flawlessly.
