I got the same problem: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-mobile/2010-March/011952.html Since I did not get a reply, I put the whole e1000 directory from CURRENT into 8-STABLE. Is there any problem with that? (It _seems_ to work so far.) Are you going to MFC the PCH devices to 8-STABLE any time soon? Thanks, Jan Henrik
