Netra T1 200 is uniprocessor py> http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/em.patch.0419 py> http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/bge.patch.0908 It is a production machine, and I am really getting tired and frustrated of fucking around with free Unixes broken in basic ways, after having to ditch NetBSD for FreeBSD because on NetBSD the network interfaces kept stalling twice an hour and requiring 'ifconfig hme0 down up'. But I guess there is no alternative unless I want to use i386. I can get any card you like, but I guess no card is ready yet. It doesn't do much good to keep the machine stable by not sloppily fuzzing old patches if it is going to livelock under the first small-packet DDoS. Thanks for the patches. I'll definitely give it a shot. I just hope the release engineering guys are not persistently leaving all this sparc64 stuff broken and ignoring your patches because they are worried i386 will be destabilized---that's not appropriate if the project is serious about this port. Thanks again, I'll try them. -- Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual way. This happens to us all the time with computers, and nobody thinks of complaining. -- Jeff Raskin --pgp-sign-Multipart_Thu_Sep_22_14:36:20_2005-1 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (NetBSD) iQCVAwUAQzL5ronCBbTaW/4dAQJGawQAnj+0sZCZYUf6u+/Cmv3wO/06Sjxx8wMM ZY6pPsPMlKzywph0grxSOTIXe67OJ0O2iCHPNK2E8ugkwRgbThRK3kfS7W260Tae nTmY45B7ncOnQDQBJ1K63r8HmyeWRaHOttKjdyeRP8DoGAZHTLBaeqf7yjya0Mvw be2d1y6V2e4= =wTrH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --pgp-sign-Multipart_Thu_Sep_22_14:36:20_2005-1--
