Hi, I've just tried applying that patch onto the -current source tree. As you might suspect, the patch couldn't be applied successfully. I have no idea how to alter the patch to suit my needs. # cd /usr/src && patch -p0 < axe.88178.patch4 => http://pastie.org/871800 To my mind, this seems like an issue affecting all OpenBSD users that own an adapter of this kind (or any other based on the ASIX AX88178 chipset?). So, my question is, should I file in a bug report? Thank you.
