The following reply was made to PR kern/104056; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Jonas Nagel <fireball@zerouptime.ch> To: Astrodog <astrodog@gmail.com> Cc: bug-followup@freebsd.org Subject: Re: kern/104056: VMware ESX 3.0: lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2006 07:49:27 +0100 The VMTN community found a workaround for this: Edit the .VMX file and replace the type of network which is "vmxnet" by default to "e1000". This causes ESX 3.x to present a perfect virtual emulation of a Intel E1000 PRO Gigabit Adapter, which apparently seems to work very well. I was unable to verify this myself yet, since I fight now with a different problem. -- Jonas Nagel <fireball@zerouptime.ch> "Everything we humans say is either meaningless or meaningful.
