The network card likely has the highest burst/peak interrupt rate of all of these (except perhaps for the sio). >I was hoping someone would mention some problem with these boards and >the INTA timing or somesuch thing.

As you suggest, that's going to need a few lines of code added to if_ed_p.c before it will work. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
