Hi David / list, Just to drop a note that this situation still persists, even with the latest 6.2-BETA3. I have issued a pr. In addition, I'm willing to send you (or anyone in the list) the NIC in question for troubleshooting. Would very much welcome a helping hand..

Would you please have a short test on the DEVICE_POLLING facility, and post the kern.polling.lost_polls after booting for a while here? _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
