You can configure the emulated nic per VM, and there are three varieties of e1000 to choose from (in addition to two pcnet), only one of them now doesn't work. I'm not sure there's a configurable global default, the default seems to depend on the type of guest OS selected when creating the VM, and in fact now (with the patch) is a working e1000 variety when creating a FreeBSD VM. > I have no intention of adding workarounds to more hardware > types. So its not too big of a problem I'd say... :) Thanx, Juergen
