Hi, We're having problems getting our SysKonnect cards to function in full-duplex mode under FreeBSD on our gigabit ethernet environment. The switch port, on an Extreme Networks 7i, is set to auto-negotiate at 1000Mbit. Here's the problem: If we boot the systems up without any media options set, ifconfig reports them as running at 1000Mbit in half-duplex mode and the switch reports them to be in full-duplex mode. Nevertheless, they *do* function this way, though performance is less than expected. However, if we instruct ifconfig to configure them in full-duplex mode, they do not function at all. When the cards are set in full-duplex, we don't even get a link light and the switch does not register a link, either. Does anyone have any ideas? Here's our setup: FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE, kernel-land is tracking -STABLE up to 2:00pm EST today. user-land is at 4.2-STABLE release. skc0: <SysKonnect Gigabit Ethernet> port 0x2800-0x28ff mem 0xf4000000-0xf4003fff irq 16 at device 16.0 on pci0 skc0: SysKonnect SK-NET Gigabit Ethernet Adapter SK-9843 SX sk0: <XaQti Corp.
