modprobe -r and modprobe the module don't solve the problem, i must reset the pc.

[Seth Arnold (seth-arnold)]

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

[Brad Figg (brad-figg)]

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. From a terminal window please run:

apport-collect 1269412

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

[fabritrento (fabritrento)]

i found also the problem described here, seems the same: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53371

i'm unable to run apport-collect 1269412 on the system, because the power supply is damaged. when i can reproduce i run the command.

[Carlos Luna (caralu1974)]

I keep trying to find what the trouble is, so I`ve tested with another kernels, even 2.6.32 and the trouble is the same, so I think now that this could be Systemd problem.

[Carlos Luna (caralu1974)]

I`ve been testing another Kernels, even 2.6.32 and the trouble is the same, so I think the problem is related to SystemD.
Some help?

[Carlos Luna (caralu1974)]

Finally this problem is for a VIA-RHINE chip

[Bert Van de Poel (bhack)]

We noticed this problem starting today on one of our older servers. It deprived the device of its internet connection (obviously), only a reboot could fix it. Here's the trace:

[Carlos Luna (caralu1974)]

I have tested to add noapic and noacpi to the kernel line and the VIA-RHINE card work fine, but after several minutes the system freezes, first I have got the keyboard and the mouse both usb disconnected and immediately the system freezes. But I think this workaround could work for some people.

[Carlos Luna (caralu1974)]

Some friend has tell me that WICD could work as well, but this program do not detect my card. Somebody could test if wicd make the magic for this network card please?

[Bert Van de Poel (bhack)]

Carlos, wicd is on the user level, like network manager, it has nothing to do with the kernel module that's failing due to this bug.

[Lars Otten (cider)]

Same issue here with newest kernel 3.13.0-37, after a few hours the network dies and I have to reboot :/

I'm getting network dropping and unable to re establish via-rhine.
I was working in bug #1460304 and had upgraded my CPU.
Is there more in common with these bugs?
I tested both kernels
