[Bug 648956] [NEW] dhcp through a bridge causes crash

[Tim]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bridge-utils

An external machine DHCPing through a local bridge causes the computer
to crash (monitor goes to energy saving mode, unable to recover).  This
only happens after a successful DHCP from the external machine.
(ethernet address removed) My bridge is very simple: eth0 is to the LAN,
eth1 is to the external machine (a Dell laptop with Windows XP)


brctl show
bridge name	bridge id		STP enabled	interfaces
br0		8000.00xxxxxxxxba		no		eth0
									eth1
