tech291083 Posted October 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 How are you connecting to the internet? Please provide some more info please, and perhaps computer specs too. the connection type is broadband and it is using the network card. SPECS: pentium 4 1.7 ghz 512 mb sd ram 40 gb hdd dvd rom 64 mb nvidia grahpics card dedicated the problem- freezing happens only when trying to surf the net.

ianw1974 Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 OK, I think it's IPV6. Disable by editing /etc/modprobe.conf and adding this line: alias net-pf-10 off and see how you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
