The first major one that came up was a problem with bge(4) which didn't = happen under 4.9. The card will load, ip's assigned to it. I can transfer = minimal data through it fine, ssh sessions and the such. However when I start to pass through large amounts of data, I start = seeing: bge0: watchdog timeout bge0: watchdog timeout bge0: watchdog timeout and the data flow stops through the network card. I then have to reboot = the server in order to get it to work again. I can repeat this. I'm having issues with a Travan tape drive (ewww I know), when it comes = to scan for that device on boot it just hangs. It used to always be fussy = about sitting on a shared ATA bus, but this is a unique bus. I will attempt to = get a verbose boot for this issue. =46inaly, I've been talking to Roger Hardiman (author of FreeBSD version) regarding the Quicknet VoIP cards. We both have the same card, he can get= his to attach to the device just fine. However on my computer I get the following... ixj0: port 0,0 at device 7.0 on pci3 ixj0: failed to enable port mapping! ixj0: No I/O space for DSP? The bottom line is from the driver, however I assume the middle line is = from the kernel. Is there anyway that I can extract more information from the kernel to why it's failing? I've seen others having issues with ATAng, however for some reason the = bge issue and ixj seem to nag me together. Is it possible there's some issue = with interrupt handling that could be causing these issues? As always if anyone with more clue then me wants to have a first hand = look I can arrange that. Kind regards, Peter. --=20 Peter Wood :: Tel +44 7974 799440
