Comment 12 for bug 245779

I've seen a very similar bug with a debian testing 2.6.24-1-686 kernel, which will be very closely related to the ubuntu 8.04 one (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=490156#2).

I've had it twice on two different but identical chassis - Viglen branded Intel chassis with Intel Server Board SE7520JR2 with dual Intel Xeon 3.00GHz. I up-to-date with the BIOS.

Does anyone know how to provoke the bug (other than waiting)? I'm running firewall/routers, and so far it has taken quite a long time to show up (a month or so) but that might just be luck.

Is the bug actually in the bonding module, and if so, has anyone tried disabling bonding and determined whether it clears the problem?

The info about which kernel version introduces the problem is very useful, but I wonder whether anyone has tried a newer kernel - I've had a suggestion that 2.6.26 might well do so, although I have no hard evidence that this is true (yet).

Best wishes,

Simon
