You can blame me for that. On the -RELEASE, not all machines were probing the second gem device. So, I fixed this, but since we do our own enumeration of PCI (tmm has patches to use OFW), your port 1 is now being probed before port 0 causing the switch. > It took some head scratching before figuring out to try plugging the > patch cable into the other port.

I can't address your other issues, maybe someone else can? -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."
