           Summary: Kernel 2.6.23-RC2: TCP + ICH9 + Amule + Hours = Freeze
                    of my Debian => Reboot
           Product: Networking
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: Kernel 2.6.23-RC2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: IPV4
        AssignedTo: shemminger@...l.org
        ReportedBy: v4ahixbmb4@...getably.com

Hello!

I had the same problem with kernel 2.6.22.
I have a very recent Asus P5K-VM motherboard, and with the same harddrive and
software on an Asus P5B-VM I had no problem. I have no problem with Ktorrent.

When I use amule with only the udp mode (Kademlia), my Debian Etch/Lenny works
alright for 24 hours straight, with dozens of active downloads.
When I use the regular tcp mode (edonkey protocol), after 3 hours my Debian
completely freezes (no hardrive activity, no console accessible, impossible to
trigger a reboot from the keyboard with the right sequence of keys), and I have
to reboot.
I reproduced this more than ten times.
I use an old D-Link DFE-530TX ethernet card with which I never had any problem
over the years. I have a cable internet connection (1 MB/s up/ 30MB/s down)
There is nothing in the logs before the freeze.
