I have a Sony FX101 laptop running FreeBSD. I installed 4.2-RELEASE from CD-ROM. I've gotten cvsup working and grabbed the src/docs trees for 4.3-RELEASE. I rebuilt the kernel/modules and booted the new kernel. It comes up properly as "4.3 RELEASE #3" and I can run X and KDE just like before. I'm having some problems with my PCMCIA network card -- a SMC NE2000 clone. It's recognized just fine by usbd and is correctly identified and assigned to ed1. After inserting the card, I run a simple (3 line) shell script to ifconfig it, bring it up and set the route for my network: #!/bin/sh ifconfig ed1 inet 192.168.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 up route add default 192.168.0.1 It worked just fine under 4.2-RELEASE, but under 4.3-RELEASE I can get out to hosts on my local network, but it can't find the gateway (nor can other hosts find it). If I boot using kernel.old (4.2-RELEASE), it works just fine again. Do I need to change my simple script or change some setting somewhere? Any ideas?
