Description Herbert Graeber 2005-09-16 21:54:44 UTC
After installing the forcedeth adapter by hand (autdetection does not work: 
maybe bug #116394), it seems to receive packages, but it cannot send packages. 
The network adapter works fine with SUSE 9.3. 
 
I have found following related message in /var/log/messages:  
"kernel: nv_stop_tx: TransmitterStatus remained busy<7>eth0: no IPv6 routers p  
resent" 
 
The Motherboard is a MSI NEO4-F (AMD64, NForce4 Chipset). 
 
lspci gives following information about the network adapter: 
"00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3)"
