On a 10/100 hub it occasionally negotiates 10BaseT speeds, and if I force it to fast ethernet speeds it seems to wedge some of the ports on the hub. It also seems to not get broadcast traffic. Is it possible to use the new if_dc driver with FreeBSD 3.x, or have things progressed too far? Would it be likely to fix this? -castor castor@alumni.caltech.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hardware Tue Nov 30 15:31:20 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (news-ma.rhein-neckar.de [193.197.90.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DEC0315852 for ; Tue, 30 Nov 1999 15:31:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: from bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (uucp@localhost) by news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) with bsmtp id AAA09066 for freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org; Wed, 1 Dec 1999 00:31:15 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) id AAA47880 for freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org; Wed, 1 Dec 1999 00:07:45 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from daemon) From: naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de (Christian Weisgerber) Subject: Re: external SCSI travan drives Date: 1 Dec 1999 00:07:45 +0100 Message-ID: <821lc1$1ent$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> References: <99112707352900.01529@ehome.inhouse> To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Eric Lee Green wrote: > Any NS20 SCSI will work with FreeBSD.

Date: Wed, 01 Dec 1999 18:50:57 +0000 From: Mark Blackman Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I couldn't find any direct reference to this in the mailing lists, so I'll ask here and see what happens. I've just installed 3.3-991128-SNAP on a very basic system consisting of a) celeron-366 CPU. b) an onboard fxp0 ethernet device c) a single IDE drive (no other IDE devices). d) usual misc. serial ports/parallel ports/floppy drive. If I don't enable dma via the 0x2000 flag for this drive, then I can happily boot up and do 'make -j16 world' with no errors. If I set dma via 0x20002000 (for the wdc0 device) at configuration, then the PC won't even finish booting. The kernel finishes its bit and passes things off to init, but once 'syslogd' gets printed, the thing reboots spontaneously with no visible panic message of any kind. There is a hint of a kernel message but of course it reboots and I can't be sure. I'm endeavouring to set up a serial console. I'm pretty sure its a hardware (m/board-BIOS) problem, but I'd like to be sure. I've swapped out the CPU,memory and IDE cable (from an identically configured machine) with no change in results. More significantly, the DMA options *works* with two other identically configured machines. This behaviour is also true of a 3.3-RELEASE system. I'm kind of hoping this will ring bells with someone who'll say, "ah yes, you need to set the multi-frobnitz-cycles option to 3 rather 2.7" rather than "this is a hardware problem". call me a dreamer..
