So polling for these cards would work without using DEVICE_POLLING in kernel conf? You are saying it's deprecated, but I have 2 FreeBSD 7.0 servers with DEVICE_POLLING in the kernel for both of them one has fxp and the second has em. I didn't read anything about DEVICE_POLLING deprecating in /usr/src/UPDATING. -- Regards, -Abdullah Ibn Hamad Al-Marri Arab Portal http://www.WeArab.Net/
