Comment 1 Stephen Hemminger 2008-01-30 13:38:53 UTC 
Probably fixed by Ilpo in later kernel versions.
Comment 2 Ilpo Järvinen 2008-04-08 01:54:29 UTC 
Another potential cause could be the problem reported in Bug #10384

The patch however, wouldn't work as is with 2.6.22.
Comment 3 Natalie Protasevich 2008-06-02 08:25:06 UTC 
Krzysztof, have you tested latest kernel by chance, has the problem gone away with all relevant patches incorporated?
Comment 4 Krzysztof Oledzki 2008-06-08 06:02:33 UTC 
Not yet, as I hit another problems so I have not been able to do it. Hopefully, there is only one left.
Comment 5 Krzysztof Oledzki 2008-07-16 07:36:43 UTC 
Fixed in more recent kernels.
