I'm using 4.8RC with polling enabled at the moment, but it does not matter if it's on or off. What the problem is is that everything is fine until the card is initialized by the kernel and then all 4 activity lights just start to flash. According to the driver it is a supported chipset /usr/src/sys/pci/if_de.c supports the 21140, everything i have read seems to support it, but what happens is that all 4 activity lights just blink and i have tested this on two identical machines with idential results. Anyone else have this problem with these cards? Getting a little frustrated at this point. Oh and what also is weird is that i get a de0-3 autosense failed: cable problem? error and the after a while i loose the interfaces all together with a broken message that i forgot to write down. (BTW i have tested this with 4 idential cards on two completely different machines with 4.8RC polling turned on and off). -- Chris Demers admin@govital.net www.govital.net www.govitalhosting.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
