Unable to load eth1 due to "cannot allocate memory"

Post by wanderer »

I have a problem bringing eth1 up. If i do it directly at startup it works, but later seem to fail. Bringing it up manually later results in:

Code: Select all

$ sudo ifconfig eth1 up
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot allocate memory

$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       1016976     995788      21188          0      16824     625248
-/+ buffers/cache:     353716     663260
Swap:       514072          0     514072

$ dmesg | grep eth
