Comment 19 for bug 263106

Here's an update: I tried this with the live cd, linux-image 2.6.28-11...same problem. Tried linux-backports-modules-2.6.28-11...same problem as 2.6.28-13.

linux-backports-modules-2.6.28-13 makes things even worse...

for some reason pcmcia is now loaded!?!?! SSB didn't need it before...

While the PHY transmission errors disappear, there is no IP link to speak of. No ping, "route" times out, etc. Here's the log:
