[2] ifconfig eth0 up -> link become up dhclient eth0 -> some packet are transmited and received and the link become down. I sometimes got e1000_reset: Hardware Error. This happen with vanilla 2.6.19 and e1000-7.3.20 drivers. This is very anoying because I should do rmmod e1000; modprobe e1000; ifup e1000 in loop until the link stay up. I try forcing speed, duplex and flow control, but nothing solve my issue. The device is working fine on windows. What should I do ? Thanks.
