The Intel NICs on >those boards need 4.4Release (or 4.3 STABLE from late August) to work >properly. I've got an Aopen MX3S motherboard with Intel 815e chipset and an onboard Intel NIC. I'm having problems with timouts. Whenever I'm updating ports or when there is massive traffic going through the NIC I get: fxp0: Device timout or fxp0: scb timeout I just got 4.3 RELEASE installed after trying 30 times, now I want to upgrade to STABLE, but am unable to retrieve the latest distributions. I've been reading about this problem on websites and in mailinglists and it seems to be a bug in the driver. Is this bug fixed in the 4.4 version of FreeBSD?
