>Number: 5205 >Category: kern >Synopsis: de driver: media selection broken for 8434BT cards >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: high >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Wed Dec 3 11:40:01 PST 1997 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Heikki Suonsivu >Organization: Clinet, Espoo, Finland >Release: FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE i386 >Environment: 2.2-STABLE. Problem appeared when media/mediaopt changes were committed. We have large number of 8434BT dual channel combo ethernet cards in use, at least 100 in various routers with large number of BNC ports in use, thus this is big problem for us, thus high priority, as linkn options do not work any more either. >Description: 2.2-STABLE after media/mediaopt changes no more allows BNC port to be used in dual channel 8434BT combo boards. Autodetection fails to detect BNC port correctly "autodetect failed", and when trying to set it with ifconfig de0 media "10base2/BNC" I get "device not configured" error. It does accept "10base5/AUI", which the card does not have, but does no traffic gets through in any mode. UTP port works fine. >How-To-Repeat: Install 8434BT to machine, connect BNC, power it up and try to configure BNC port. >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
