You don't need to increment it. The buffers fill only up since the network card doesn't respond. The sad thing is that the `vx' driver is fairly preliminary. It should not have been in 2.1.5 at all, and was only included since the release notes and printed (CD-ROM) documentation mentioned these cards as being supported. The best fix is to either swap the card against something FreeBSD has a better driver for, or rewrite the `vx' driver. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
