Intels page says that the > new card is driver compatible--anyone using the new card? It worked for me under 2.2.5. We were dropping some packets, but less then the onboard 3COM (I don't remember which, but the boot messages said it had defective firmware). That was running in promiscuious mode on a 10Mbit network with a PPro 180. It certaintly work well enough for any normal application, but the drops were a bit annoying since were were trying to do some network monitoring. -- Brooks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
