This patch was generated using a version of if_xl.c from FreeBSD-current,
but it should work on any version of the driver with only a couple of
mild warnings.

how to create new busses, how to create top level bus drivers and how to
create drivers for devices attached to busses. If anyone can point me at
such a guide or can just explain to me how this nonsense is supposed to
work, I'd be grateful.

don't you?" This isn't to say
that we should pay attention to everybody who complains since some of
them are just out and out crackpots, but I happen to think the jumbo
frame support is a big win (based on the performance stats I've seen).
Maybe we can add anoth
rmation because sa_family had gotten mangled to
16 (AF_APPLETALK).
I still need to write a vlan(4) man page.

then
you must force the 3Com nic to 10Mbps half-duplex:
# ifconfig xl0 media 10baseT/UTP mediaopt half-duplex
This is because the NE2K and 8039 (ne2k compatible) don't support full
duplex mode.

go _way_ out on a limb here and suggest that you try and
coerce your system BIOS to assign the RealTek interface an IRQ other
than 9. I say 'try' because sometimes you aren't given the option to
configure this. Usually there's some configuration menu that lets

I don't know if this is still a problem or not. At the moment, I have
no easy way to test it.

Like I said, it depends on time and availability of resources.

y to experiment is compile your kernel _WITHOUT_ bge support,
and then build if_bge.ko as a module:

you need to do to enable/power up the
on-board NIC that we're not doing
This is something you should be asking the PCI gurus about,
not the networking gurus.

the replies garbled? Is there a lot of other activity on
the network at the time? Can you initiate another (smaller) NFS
transfer when the first one wedges?
You have to give me as much information as you can. I need to be
able to clearly identify the symptoms of the problem with out all
the 'oh

in combination with your PCI chipset. Regardless, it's a condition
which I can't reproduce on my own hardware, and if I can't reproduce
the problem, I can't fix it.

that all the newbus stuff has been rolled in. If the
pccard support for the x86 still works under 'emulation' using an
ISA device shim, then that's fine. If not... well, then I suppoose
_I'm_ the one who's going to end up testing it.

g is limited to blasting traffic between two hosts through a
fiber patch.
So, if anybody is actually using a Tigon-based gigabit board with
STABLE or CURRENT, let me know. Is it working reliably? Is performance
good? Is it bad? Inquiring minds want to know.

ng in the USB code is re-using a
free()ed memory buffer. Unfortunately, I don't have this particular
hardware available to me, and I don't know how much debugging support
the individual at Transmeta will be able to offer. (He has his own
problems.) Hopefully this will at least help spur some
you all for your attention. Don't

It's not a bug in our implementation, it's implementation weirdness

Thanks for providing me access to this machine, it helped me realize
where I'd gone wrong in my patch. If this works for you, and if nobody
objects, I will check it in.
k, though my test for the
geteuid() == 0 case was a bit of a kludge since I don't actually
