Posted: Mon Oct 02, 2006 12:15 pm Post subject: Rare download issue |
|
|
I've been doing tests, and I've found that emerge --sync doesn't work due to the internet connection. Let me explain:
If I try to download with wget or firefox any file bigger than 300 or 400 kB the download hangs when it have downloaded 300-400 kB. I can say that in the same pc and the same internet connection (and settings), with another OS (Windows XP) this issue is NOT present. Then, I can say that I've run a Gentoo Install Live CD 2006.1, and the issue appeared again!
Conclusions: The problem scope is in the OS, not application problem, not hardware problem. Maybe kernel problem?
Code: | # uname -a
Linux hoth 2.6.17-rc6-mm2 #6 PREEMPT Sun Jun 11 18:00:06 CEST 2006 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1400MHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

The kernel that comes in the live CD is probably older. _________________ GPG Key-ID: 0x564903FA - Jabber ID: corellian@swissjabber.ch |

Probably it is a driver problem.
Explain your internet connection (lan?, ADSL? cable?).
Give the output of lspci to identify ethernet adapters or similar devices. _________________ Fletto i muscoli e sono nel vuoto |

I would try with other livecd, maybe with older (2.4) kernels.
Do you have the same problem with lan to lan connections? _________________ Fletto i muscoli e sono nel vuoto |

LAN to LAN connections are ok. No issues.
I'll try with another kernel... _________________ GPG Key-ID: 0x564903FA - Jabber ID: corellian@swissjabber.ch |
