I have had the same problem, as shown here:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2011-June/063092.html

According to your pciconf output, your card either doesn't support
MSI-X, or you have MSI-X disabled.

Check the hw.pci.enable_msix sysctl and make sure that it is set to 1.
Also check to make sure there aren't any BIOS settings blocking MSI-X.

Apparently the older Intel gigabit cards don't support MSI-X, and as
such get starved.


I checked and hw.pci.enable_msix=1, so that is on.
Any hints what to look for in the BIOS settings that might block MSI-X??

I'll also be ugrading the bios this weekend to if that will enable MSI-X.

Another solution would be to get a new version Intel Ethernet card?
And stick it in a PIC-X slot?
Or would that again suffer from starvation.

And as a side question:
Why would that starvation actually "crash" the driver/device?

Keypress at Installation-CD/DVD ?

2011-11-11 Thread Werner Griessl


Hi List,

Is it possible to add a Question like
"press a key to boot from CD"
before the boot from the 9.0 Installation-CD/DVD ?

Live would be much easier after installation of FBSD9.0 .

NIAGARA STUDENT TAKES HOME PRESTIGIOUS CULINARY AWARD 


A cook apprentice of Niagara College's Canadian Food and Wine Institute has 
taken home awards from some of the country's most prestigious culinary 
competitions.
Nathan Dawe recently returned from Montreal as a silver medal winner from the 
National Chaines Des Rotisseurs Apprentice Competition. He represented Ontario 
at the competition – one of the most respected competitions in Canada, held at 
the end of October – after winning a provincial title last spring.

"We are very proud of Nathan's remarkable accomplishment at this highly 
respected national culinary competition," said Jon Ogryzlo, Dean of the 
Canadian Food and Wine Institute. "Nathan's award is the culmination of very 
hard work and his commitment to excellence, and we look forward to celebrating
