Which is interesting, because I interpreted "that killed my network card" to mean "the re(4) code in RELENG_7 as of 2008/08/20 caused my network card to explode/die/burst into flames". Please try to be a little more precise when describing what problems you're having with a driver or hardware. Your above explanation ("ping and traceroute didn't work") is also too terse. bernt_hansson -vvv. :-) -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
