[Bridge] recent 2.6 kernels hang on bridge shutdown - solved
Folks, For what it's worth I used to have the hang at shutdown with brnf and kernel 2.4.26. An fsck on the boot drive fixed it (telling me it had nothing to do with whatever kernel I was running)...have you tried that?

However, it is not easy to reproduce this problem, it happens to me only on one of my machines, and only sometimes, and it doesn't happen on any of my other bridges, I've been trying to get the steps to reproduce it but I'm not able :-( Mirko, if you can do more tests, maybe you find that your machine it still suffers from this.
