The following reply was made to PR i386/70832; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Russell Jackson <rjackson@cserv63.csub.edu> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, jojo@matfyz.cz Cc: Subject: Re: i386/70832: Serious problems with RealTek NIC using re0 on Evo N1015v Date: Tue, 5 Oct 2004 10:57:47 -0700 (PDT) We're on 5.3BETA7 now, and this problem persists. The internal RT8139C+ on my Compaq Presario 900 is complete unusable. Not only do I get the watchog timeouts and random panics at shutdown, but often the loopback test fails and the driver doesn't attach.Obviously, I'm not on a 64bit bus, so this test should not fail. Turning off ACPI does not seem to correct the problem, but I'm not certain that it rules it out as a source. I know many others have also reported this problem on freebsd-current. I have personally sent several messages to Bill Paul (maintainer) about the issue, but have never recieved a response.
