--JP+T4n/bALQSJXh8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Dear Sirs, After many years of happy FreeBSD'ing in various environments, I upgraded my home box (Gateway G6-266M) to 3.2-RELEASE (from 2.2.7-RELEASE) with a fresh install of 3.2 from my WC CDROMs after having added a SMC EtherPower(SMC8432T 10BaseT) NIC, supported by the de driver. The NIC is on a LAN comprising my PC, a W2k PC and a Netgear hub which connects to a new Toshiba cable modem. The W2k box has no problems enjoying the speedy net access offered by the cable modem. My PC struggles to send and receive a packet. The main symptoms are: I have a link light at the hub, but at the NIC I only ever get link (green) when I also get collision (orange). This appears to happen only when the other box is causing heavy traffic and occurs in bursts with large packet loss. During this time I can squeeze in and out about enough packets to get DHCP running, and thereafter I can barely complete a net transaction (eg. load a web page, look up a CD, telnet, etc.) When the box comes up cold, the interface frequently gets autoconfigured to the wrong type, eg. 10Base5/AUI, 10Base2/BNC, despite only having RJ45. I have a custom kernel (config attached) with de0 and other stuff to fit my box. I have tried every combination of PnP in the BIOS (PnP OS=yes/no) and the kernel (controller pnp0 or no) and none seem to make any difference. I have tried every ifconfig option I can find - full-duplex, link1/2 (not supported by de according to man page). I have moved to NIC to a different PCI slot and have swapped it with another of the same type, all without effect (except the IRQ changed when I moved the NIC). I'm out of ideas. Can you help? I've attached various output files from dmesg, ifconfig, netstat -rn (after DHCP), ping <gateway>, etc. Please let know if I can provide anything else. yours, -Andrew- --JP+T4n/bALQSJXh8 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="dmesg.txt" 0x05ffdfff, 98181120 bytes (23970 pages) avail memory = 95408128 (93172K bytes) Found BIOS32 Service Directory header at 0xc00f7410 Entry = 0xfd7b1 (0xc00fd7b1) Rev = 0 Len = 1 PCI BIOS entry at 0x21c DMI header at 0xc00f7400 Version 2.0 Table at 0xef910, 31 entries, 1014 bytes Other BIOS signatures found: ACPI: 00000000 $PnP: 000f7430 Preloaded elf kernel "kernel" at 0xc024f000.
