That's a good Idea. Right now I'm talking with Intel. Apparantly this is a problem that is occurring on other OS's, and probably has little to do with the freebsd driver. They have asked me to loan them some machines that are having this problem so that they can investigate it. I will probably do so in the next few days. Perhaps they can either find out what is wrong with the cards and fix it for future revisions, or tell us what we need to do to get around the problem in software. *crossing fingers* Jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
