Hi, I have installed FreeBSD 6.2 BETA2 on a Intel Core 2 Duo system with ASUS P5B motherboard. Although BETA2 works rather good in general, I'm having some issues with fast usb and the onboard lan chip. I could not find these same issues in the mailing lists, so I hope someone can point me in the right direction. USB I'm using an internal multi-card reader, that only seems to work with ehci disabled in the kernel. So it only works at usb 1.1. If I try the GENERIC kernel (which has ehci enabled) I get the following error messages, which lock up the system (added USB_DEBUG): umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall failed, TIMEOUT umass0: BBB bulk-out clear stall failed, TIMEOUT (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): Request completed with CAM_REQ_CMP_ERR repeated 5 times, and then: (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): error 5 (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): Retries Exausted Then another disk is opened, and the above repeats itself. This error does not show up on every reboot. I tried the following patch, which seemed to work for a while: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-usb/2006-September/002574.html Although the error message in the above post is different from what I see. After I had installed GNOME 2.16.1, with hald enabled, the error showed up again, however. So I don't know if the patch had any (positive) effect at all. As said before, when I disable ehci, and enable hald, the card reader works. My /var/log/messages is now flooded with the following message (and the like): Opened disk da3 -> 6 (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): READ CAPACITY. CDB: 25 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): CAM Status: SCSI Status Error (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): SCSI Status: Check Condition (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): NOT READY asc:3a,0 (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): Medium not present (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): Unretryable error This used to be normal at boot. Is this some kind of hald thingy? RE(4) LAN The ASUS P5B has an onboard Realtek 8168B/8111B ethernet chip. It is detected and hooked up to re0, but I get very bad network connectivity. Some sites work, some don't. If I load www.google.com for instance the page keeps loading indefinitely, and I only see the top part of the page. The same chip works correctly under Windows XP. The output of tcpdump shows some bad chksum errors, but I don't know if that is normal. I now reverted to an old Realtek 8139D pci card, which works fine. The re(4) man page does not mention this chipset. Is it supposed to be supported? If additional information is needed, please let me know. Are these known issues, with perhaps known solutions? Thanks in advance! Regards, Lodewijk Koopman
