I would like to connect a freeBSD box on a Cisco router.
 
 To do it I did rebuilt a kernel with that:
 
         pseudo-device  sppp
         device         sr0  at pci? port 0x300 irq iomem 0xd0000 
 
 Then, when I  made dmseg 'sr0', it tells me that:
         sr0 XXX: driver didn't set ifq_maxlen
         sr1 XXX: driver didn't set ifq_maxlen

From a specialist called Kenjiro Cho:

Starting from FreeBSD-4, drivers are supposed to set ifq_maxlen.
The messages are just warnings but if you want to suppress the
warning, add
         ifp->if_snd.ifq_maxlen = IFQ_MAXLEN;
in srattach() in sys/i386/isa/if_sr.c just before calling if_attach().

----------------
But how the FreeBSD box can know the modification since I didn't compile
the program ?
And I am not sur that reboot the machine is enough ?

If someone has a global bit of idea, he is more than welcome.

Thanks on advanced, 
Jean-Christophe.
