Author: emaste Date: Mon Jun 11 20:46:20 2018 New Revision: 334981 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/334981 Log: muge.4: remove BUGS section (about link/act LEDs) Lack of functioning link and activity LEDs on devices without an EEPROM is expected (not a bug). Quoting the EVB-LAN7850 User's Guide: When configured with the default internal register settings, the Ethernet Link status LEDs are not enabled. To enable Ethernet Link status LEDs, enable the EEPROM. This is an artifact of the different ways in which the evaluation board can be used. End-user USB-Ethernet adapters using the Microchip LAN78XX or LAN7515 controllers should use an EEPROM or have OTP configuration, if their product configuration does not match the boot default register configuration.
