Thanks for the replies. network_interfaces omission was a copy&paste error (sharp eye, though). fxp1 (mis)behaves the same way. I put a 3com 3c905b-TX in and it's working ok but this won't really do long-term (but at least I know the motherboard is ok). I need 2 interfaces on the box - it's a 2u rack mount and there's not enough available slots for another NIC. Are there any known issues with the fxp driver or any config flags or other magical incantations I can try? I upgraded the BIOS, I'll try switching PCI slots. Is there any other diagnostic information I could gather that would help? As a last resort, can anyone recommend any non-i82559 based dual ethernet cards?
