Comment 84 for bug 997767

@jsalisbury, yes, I can do that. Let me just finish my current test and I can run on that kernel as well.

@brad-figg: Ok, I try to summarize because I created a lot of confusion here:

1. I've been running all the Kubuntu versions since some years, so including Natty, Oneiric etc... I always update to the latest version when it is available. With this hardware I've never had issues with previous versions of Kubuntu.

2. Yes, I installed 12.04 and I started to experience this.

3. I didn't install the Natty kernel, it was installed already since the previous versions of Kubuntu. I had available 2.6.38 and 3.0.0 (and 3.2 of course). None of those worked. I tested more than once.

4. Any test I run so far failed on this installation (network shut down). Also recovery mode and the proposal of mjan.

5. What I noticed so far is that when network load is high, the network seems to shut down sooner. Recovery mode for instance may last for more than a day. If instead I run mldonkey in recovery mode, after some hours I expect to see the network down. But this is only something I noticed, might only be a coincidence.

6. The only thing that I still haven't seen failing is the Precise live CD. I'm trying to load the network using iperf and downloading from the Internet continuously. Still no failure after a couple of days. I'll wait for some more days. But unfortunately, with the live CD I'm not able to run servers like apache, proftpd, svn, mldonkey etc... that I use in my common installation. Booting from USB is not supported by the hardware.

7. I had the chance to try kernel 3.4, thanks to a kind guy on irc. That failed as well. I still have to try 3.5.
