Took me quite some days to figure out this is actually a bug in IPv6. netcfg doesn't expose this kernel bug, bug NetworkManager does. Hope someone can test this patch with linux-lts and networkmanager (preferably -git one since the release has bugs with IPv6), I'm too lazy to do that now. -- Carl Lei (XeCycle) Department of Physics, Shanghai Jiao Tong University OpenPGP public key: 7795E591 Fingerprint: 1FB6 7F1F D45D F681 C845 27F7 8D71 8EC4 7795 E591
