I was incorrect about de0, if you unplug it, the link goes dead and never comes back when you plug it back in, and ifconfig-ing it back up doesn't do anything. Also a netstat -i will hang forever after the first line. We have about five of these cards (de0), and I am a bit worried, since occasionaly one must unplug the ethernet to move things around. As a further note, I see this behaviour with 2.2-RELEASE, 2-2-STABLE (as of yesterday afternoon), and the last 3.0 snapshot (I use a 3.0 install disk for the newer sysinstall). This also all takes place in 10BT mode. Is this a known problem, and if so is a fix in the works?
