Hello,

I recently purchased a Asus NX 1101 nic for a intel pc I have at home.
The motherboard is a intel gigabyte GA-8I945GMF and I'm running FreeBSD
6.3 RELEASE.

The card is correctly using the stge driver but whenever I try and bring
the interface up I get the following message " host interface error
resetting" repeated over and over again and I have to reboot the server.

I tested the card on an AMD gigabyte board (K8M800-8237), also running
FreeBSD 6.3 and the card runs perfectly.

I checked dmesg and also /var/logl/message and I couldn't find anything
useful, any ideas?

Rudi
