The card worked fine in single cpu mode. The box I was using was a compaq DL360 and the code was freebsd-stable 4.4. I got watchdog timeouts if I remember correctly. A search thru -stable list should turn up my problems. The card & box worked fine with linux (kernel 2.2.x) both with and without SMP enabled. So, I'm not sure if it was an interupt thing or APIC thing with freebsd or just a general user head-space problem on my part.
