Is this mini-PCI. If so down-rev the firmware. I got it working better with newer version of mini-PCI but ran into problem in which checking on status while sending data could wedge the card. Doing a kldunload/kldload fixes it but my reset attempts methods didn't :-( I also have the HW MIC support added but not the SW bits. I been derailed on too many other FreeBSD problems to make much progress. I have lots of things that need polish before they can be commited but don't have the time to do that :-( The biggest thing is an OpenIPMI compatable IPMI driver so ipmitool etc. can talk via the motherboard interface.
