Known swi= tches include: Planex FXG-08TE I-O Data ETG-SH8 The driver can be compiled with the following changes: Edit ./em.x.x.x/src/if_em.h to change the #define EM_MASTER_SLAVE For example, change from: #define EM_MASTER_SLAVE e1000_ms_hw_default to: #define EM_MASTER_SLAVE 2 On Sat, Jun 19, 2010 at 10:20 PM, <FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org> wrote= : > Thank you very much for your problem report. > It has the internal identification `kern/148004'. > The individual assigned to look at your > report is: freebsd-bugs. > > You can access the state of your problem report at any time > via this link: > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D148004 > >>Category: =A0 =A0 =A0 kern >>Responsible: =A0 =A0freebsd-bugs >>Synopsis: =A0 =A0 =A0 Inconsistent networking with em driver on FreeBSD 8= .0-p2 >>Arrival-Date: =A0 Sun Jun 20 05:20:02 UTC 2010 >
