Hi,

The intel is fine, it just gives the warning ("unsupported PHY type=7") or
somesuch...

I was incorrect about de0, if you unplug it, the link goes dead and never
comes back when you plug it back in, and ifconfig-ing it back up doesn't
do anything.  Also a netstat -i will hang forever after the first line.
We have about five of these cards (de0), and I am a bit worried, since
occasionaly one must unplug the ethernet to move things around.  As a
further note, I see this behaviour with 2.2-RELEASE, 2-2-STABLE (as of
yesterday afternoon), and the last 3.0 snapshot (I use a 3.0 install disk
for the newer sysinstall).  This also all takes place in 10BT mode.  Is
this a known problem, and if so is a fix in the works?

Thanks,

Charles
