Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, John Polstra had to walk into mine and say: > I've run into a problem with the wb0 interface (Winbond) on a > machine running -current from yesterday. (That's before any of > the segset_t changes went in.) Unfortunately, the machine is > cvsup-master.freebsd.org, which makes this pretty urgent. I converted the wb driver to miibus ages ago. Your description makes it sound like the problem just magically appeared yesterday. That's a no-no, m'kay? > When I try to ifconfig the device, I get "ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: > Device not configured": > > cvsup-master# ifconfig wb0 inet 204.216.27.25 netmask 255.255.255.240 > media 100baseTX mediaopt half-duplex > ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: Device not configured You don't need to explicitly specify mediaopt half-duplex anymore. Specifying media 100baseTX without mediaopt full-duplex implies half-duplex. Leave off the mediaopt half-duplex part and it will work. -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (212) 854-6020 | System Manager, Master of Unix-Fu Work: wpaul@ctr.columbia.edu | Center for Telecommunications Research Home: wpaul@skynet.ctr.columbia.edu | Columbia University, New York City ============================================================================= "It is not I who am crazy; it is I who am mad!" - Ren Hoek, "Space Madness" ============================================================================= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
