| − |    |   | 
| − | Note: There are some problems with the driver since kernel 2.6.17 (at least on a Z61p, Z61m). After an ifdown && ifup it doesn't work anymore. A possible workaround is to build the tg3-driver as a module and reload it when this problem occours. (Adding ''pre-up modprobe tg3'' and ''post-down rmmod tg3'' to the corresponding section in /etc/network/interfaces works fine.) Rebooting the machine would also be possible.
  |   | 
| − | This is fixed in kernel 2.6.19-rc5.
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | The T43 with a stock Linux 2.6.18.1 kernel does not have any problems.
