Hi. I'm struggling to get FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE running on an HP i2000 box, but the fxp NIC driver doesn't seem to be working properly. Initialization goes fine: fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0x1000-0x103f mem 0xfdf00000-0xfdffffff,0xfddef000-0xfddeffff irq 44 at device 5.0 on pci0 fxp0: Ethernet address 00:d0:b7:f9:f7:e2 And "ifconfig fxp0 inet <ip-number>" also reports no errors. The driver even reliably detects whether the network is active or there is no carrier. So far, so good... but that's it. I can't ping anyone in the local net, and noone sees me. I'm alone, isolated and depressed! I ruled out hardware problems as the network works fine if I boot Windows XP. I also tried another i8255x card, with same results. My questions are: Has anyone experienced this problem in an Itanium box? Any workaround? Will I be better off with a different NIC? Thanks. -- ++*Juan-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ia64" in the body of the message
