On the other hand, I've been watching -stable and -questions, and haven't seen anyone else who has had problems with such things yet. So, I'm guessing that it must be related to the NIC driver somehow. If he could test another card/driver, I'd know for sure, but it doesn't look that that will happen soon. I suppose it's also possible that the probe routines have changed and he's using a different shared memory area than before or something. Someone's been messing with that stuff, I think. :) Mike "Silby" Silbersack To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
