Hi Bill, Sorry for the previous e-mail, but have in mind that I'm trying to cooperate by testing your drivers and I am not aware of the rules for declaring a hardware problem in the mailing lists. The only way I can send you the messages from the kernel is if I rewrite them from the console. Here is the information that you requested: bge0: <Broadcom BCM5705M Dual Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x3001> mem 0x90000000-0x9000ffff irq 11 at device 14.0 on pci2 bge0: firmware handshake timed out bge0: RX CPU self-diagnostics failed! bge0: chip initialization failed device_probe_and_attach: bge0 attach returned 6 If you need more detailed information, I can send it to you on request.
