Thanks for your answer Carlos. I try to do same but still doesn't have network after hot reboot and still have message: bce0: /usr/src/sys/modules/bce/../../dev/bce/if_bce.c(1386); Unable to write CTX.... Here is what I do : - get back source from dvd - Remove MII and bce from my kernel configuration file - make new kernel (make buildkernel) - install new kernel ( make installkernel) - add yes to if_bce on loader.conf - do make then make install on "/usr/src/sys/modules/bce" halt system; shutdown power; boot=> ok Reboot => unable to wriet ctx.... ;=( Any Idea of what to do to make it work? My config is : DELL R710 with Freebsd 7.2 AMD64 Release. Thanks for your help.

While running FreeBSD AMD64 7.2-RELEASE I sometimes got strange message from bce but main problem is that if I do a soft reboot (just typing reboot) I then have lots of message like : "if_bce.c Unable to write CTX memory" and then no more network acces. To make it work again I don't have other solution that do a cold reboot (unplug power). I saw other people speaking of this but never find solution. Is there a way to make it work without changing network card? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric" <ericd@free.fr> To: <freebsd-drivers@freebsd.org> Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 12:19 PM Subject: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit Ethernet Dell 610 and Dell Hi, Does any one find solution to this problem as we have same, try a proposed patch but still have problem?
