I've seen some DragonFly commit logs
(http://www.dragonflybsd.org/cvsweb/src/sys/dev/netif/nv/if_nv.c) which talk
about fixing problems in the nve code regarding those timeout issues (but
there seem to be problems in the nvidia provided object code, see
http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/users/2005-11/msg00027.html). Maybe
someone with such a card is interested to have a look at them.

Additionally Matthew wants to have a look at the Linux forcedepth driver:

Bye,
Alexander.
