Yep .. I'm not happy with it either. Actually for the first time
ever I'm affraid to build and reboot the current -stable kernel
because my fxp0 is the only link it has to the outside and because
its a remote machine for me. 

I imagine there are others as well that maintain remote machines
and don't really like tampering with network drivers. I bought the
fxp card on recommendation because of its stability.

Oh well, I'm confident it'll all turn out the right way.. I'll just
wait with building a new kernel untill I don't hear anyone 
complaining anymore and then I'll cross my fingers and try booting 
the kernel myself.

with regards,
 Stephan
