I can't find documentation on the options, if any, for flags for the the fxp0 driver. I did a search on www.freebsd.org and on the local docs, plus looked in the FBSD Handbook. There appear to be flags defined in the kernel code for this card but my C is pretty primitive and I haven't been able to figure out what the correct flags are. The hardware is an Everex PO-6200, dual PPro, 64MB, Adaptec 2744 with 4 narrow diff SCSI-II drives, Adpatec 2740 with NEC CD-ROM, S3 Virge video, Pro100B Enet. I'm runniong 3.3-RELEASE with a kernel compiled for SMP (works fine), NETATALK, IPX, ccd, bpf. The same hardware ran 2.2.7 for quite a while, although not SMP. Symptoms are high error rates, especially inbound, on both 10 and 100Mbit connections. samba 2.0.2 and 2.0.5a both lock up under heavy loads (2.0.5a has been patched as listed in the bugfixes for the ports version of samba.
