The following reply was made to PR kern/6197; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Dougal Campbell <dougal@advicom.net> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu Cc: Subject: Re: kern/6197: 3com905 Seriously broken Date: Wed, 1 Jul 1998 11:14:34 -0500 (CDT) I recently ran into the 3c905B problem myself, and found this problem report. This morning someone referred me to the following web site when I inquired on a local Linux mailing list about whether recent Linux kernels supported this card yet. Are there any updates as to when FreeBSD 2.2.6-STABLE will incorporate support for this card? If no progress has made yet, perhaps the author of the Linux driver would give permission for the FreeBSD driver maintainer to borrow the code. In the meantime, I'm considering downgrading my interface to a spare 3c595 that we have laying around here....
