Unstable with GA-Z77-DS3H (1.0) AR8151? #26

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
The system.log frequently report '[ALXEthernet] Hardware Error: error when 
reset mac', then the network go down and system go hang.

My build is with Z77-DS3H (1.0) board which is based on atheros ethernet.
My driver is ALXEthernet 1.0.2 (from multibeast 5.2.1), but it frequently show 
error to me, and usually make the network interface down or system hang.

The situation is very poor, even I can not finish a whole progress of 
TimeMachine Backup ( about 110G bytes ). Each time, the progress reaches 
30G~40G, the system should hang.

The error log is below:

kirbyzhou@KirbyPro:~ $

AtherosL1cEthernet-1.2.3 seems much more stable than ALXEthernet-1.0.2 on my 
build.
