Comment 75 for bug 60764

Also affects Karmic Server on Lenovo S10e,

     sudo ethtool -K eth0 tx off

on server was sufficient to solve this problem.

If it is impossible to get it properly fixed in the kernel,
how about an error handler that does the equivalent
of the ethtool fix, and automatically submits a bug report
that includes the hardware, kernel, etc. versions that
will give the developers a real feel for how many folks
are being affected. I am certain many of the folks affected
never find their way to launchpad. And many never
succeed in resolving the issue.

Oops. I see why my suggestion is bogus. The error
is detected on the client, but needs to be fixed on the
server.

The client could do a better job of issuing a
comprehensible error message that points the
user to a possible solution.

This is certainly not the first time I have bumped into
this problem, and it probably won't be the last.
