I'm in the process of installing my laptop (Dell Inspiron 7000) from the 4.0-20000117-CURRENT snapshot over a 3Com 3CCFE574BT pccard. It is running, but *incredibly slowly*. I suspect the I may well have an IRQ conflict but unfortunately the install program didn't give too much choice. It puts up a dialog box that seems to allow me to select some IRQs to not use (I think, the wording is not very clear to me), and if I simply leave it at the default the ftp transfer hangs (DNS and ftp login works!). (Note: I am installing from a server on my local network so there can't be any firewall or Internet issues.) If I select one of the options (I think I picked option 2, but I'm not really sure), the ftp transfers do progress, but at the incredibly rate of 10KBps (this is on a 10Mbps segment of my LAN). Watching the packet traffic with tcpdump on the server I see that for every 12 packets sent out by the server, I get one ack packet back from my laptop (this may be correct, I don't know what the window size is). Anybody have any ideas what's going on? Could this be due to an IRQ conflict with the enet card? Is there some way to get install to pick a specific IRQ? Thanks, Bob -- Bob Willcox Don't tell me that worry doesn't do any good. bob@pmr.com I know better. The things I worry about don't Austin, TX happen. -- Watchman Examiner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
