Subject:   dc network card driver problems in 4.3-BETA
Message-ID:  <20010312194443.C39224@bsd.havk.org>

I just upgraded a box from 4.2-RELEASE to 4.3-BETA from sources
yesterday and the dc driver no longer likes my network card.  The
card is a Kingston KNE110TX.  Here is the dmesg output from today.

root@needle(~)# dmesg | more grep '^dc0:'
dc0: <82c169 PNIC 10/100BaseTX> port 0xec00-0xecff mem 0xd5820000-0xd5820ff irq 11 at device 13.0 on pci0
dc0: Ethernet address: 00:c0:f0:5a:d0:ce
dc0: failed to force tx and rx to idle state

And here is the dmesg output from the previous kernel.

root@needle(~)# dmesg | more grep '^dc0:'
dc0: <82c169 PNIC 10/100BaseTX> port 0xec00-0xecff mem 0xd5820000-0xd58200ff irq 11 at device 13.0 on pci0

The network card was working fine until after I upgraded.  Now it
doesn't seem to want to transmit any packets.  In fact I can't
do simple things like 'ping 192.168.21.3' which is the IP address
for this card without getting 'permission denied' messages.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Thanks.
