I just got 4 new linksys cards, and they have changed the controller chip from the dec 21040 to the 21140 chip. Freebsd's if_de0.c says that it supports the new chip, however it does not work. The kernel detects and configures the card, ifconfig configures the card with no errors, however the card will not talk to the network at all. It does not see incoming packets, nor does it send outgoing packets. Is there a fix for this, and if not, will there be soon? -- James Ochs Web Systems Engineer jochs@aimnet.net
