Actually, this is only for the 815E chipset. So far, it seems that this particular chipset experiences SCB timeouts when running at 10Mb/s, but works at 100Mb/s. Regular PCI cards (and certain 815E motherboards) don't seem to have this problem. The problem with 10Mb/s on -stable yesterday is for the ancient versions of the 82557 cards with a serial PHY; I screwed up the initial commit. This problem looks like either the NIC isn't transmitting, or it is sending garbage out on the wire. I'd suggest checking the netstat statistics (netstat -s) on the boxes and see if anything's incrementing. -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
