Each of these systems has two on board gigabit ethernet cards using the BCM5708 chipset which work fine. (bce driver) Four of these machines have an added dual port gigabit pci-x card with the BCM5704 chipset, these cards experience packet loss. (bge drivers) I have tried setting the speed/duplex to gig/full, gig/half, 100/full, 100/half and I still get packet loss of upto 30% across the interfaces. At present I'm running the cards at 10base/utp and that seems to have fixed the packet loss problem. Testing was done using 2 cisco 2960's and a dlink des-1024r+ switch, same problem using any of the three switches. bge0: mem 0xc7ef0000-0xc7efffff irq 24 at device 3.0 on pci8 bge1: mem 0xc7ee0000-0xc7eeffff irq 25 at device 3.1 on pci8 bce0: mem 0xce000000-0xcfffffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci3 bce1: mem 0xca000000-0xcbffffff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci6 >How-To-Repeat: using if_bge drivers with a bcm5704 chipset, configure the interface to 100/1000mbit, any duplex setting. attempt to send packets via the device. >Fix: media 10baset mediaopts full-duplex. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
