Hi, Following cards: bge0: <Broadcom BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet> mem 0xf7fb0000-0xf7fbffff irq 5 at device 5.0 on pci1 bge1: <Broadcom BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet> mem 0xf7fa0000-0xf7faffff irq 10 at device 6.0 on pci1 Sucessfully got this driver recognised and "working" on FreeBSD 4.6-PRERELEASE #1: Thu May 9 12:50:45 BST 2000. Seems to fine.. apart from im noticing packet loss on receiving (typically 16%). Transmit is fine though! I read in the mailling lists mentions of hardware checksum problems with the chipset.. did anyone know what the final outcome with this problem was and if any changes had been MFC'd? Thanks in advance for any help. -- Jamie Heckford Network Manager Trident Microsystems Ltd Tel: 01737 780790 Fax: 01737 771908 http://www.tridentmicrosystems.co.uk *********** This e-mail message contains confidential information for the above addressee only.
