Hello,
I just tested the sis.diff patch and it almost worked on me :)
I get:
sis0: <SiS 900 10/100BaseTX> port 0xe400-0xe4ff mem 0xf4000000-0xf4000fff
irq 10 at device 3.0 on pci0
sis0: Ethernet address: 00:40:d0:2a:b0:af
miibus0: <MII bus> on sis0
ukphy0: <Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface> on miibus0
ukphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
pci_cfgintr_virgin: using routable interrupt 5
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address = 0xe6dc2
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc00e8cb5
stack pointer = 0x10:0xc0536d6c
frame pointer = 0x10:0xc0536d6c
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process = 0 (swapper)
interrupt mask = net tty bio cam
trap number = 12
panic: page fault
Uptime 0s
It'll be great if someone can fix this.
thanks
