I can't get it to see any traffic on the wire, it probes fine, seems to select the right media but no traffic arrives or leaves. I've started trying to sort this out but the de0 driver has become a really horrible mess and it's taking me a while to unravel it. From what I've done so far I know that the driver's interrupt handler never gets called and that OACTIVE is permanantly stuck on. NetBSD works fine but diffing against their sources hasn't turned up anything that immediately lept out as being the reason. Paul.
