Hi.
I installed 5.2.1-RC2 on a Dell Latitude CP notebook based on Pentium
MMX 233MHz processor with 128Mb of RAM. There is one cardbus NIC based
on RealTek 8139 chip. This is a Planet ENW-3504FC CardBus NIC. When I
run 'cvsup my-supfile' the NIC is stop working short time after it
started to update the first collection:
I can't ping any host of my LAN or any other but I can ping my self host
locally. No external host can ping me too. It continue to not work even
after I stoped cvsup. To make the NIC work I can do ether:
1. run /etc/rc.d/netif restart
or
2. enable or disable promiscuous mode on the NIC by running or stoping
tcpdump.
Following are parts of `dmesg` and `ifconfig -a` related to this NIC:
rl0: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> port 0x1000-0x10ff mem

Interesting, how cvsup could make the NIC to stop working? I tried to
use 'hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"' but it didn't help.
