The "hackers" are only interested in cards that they use, and they all use intel for high end stuff. Bill paul is too busy writing drivers for some new gigabit card to worry about old stuff. (note that most of his drivers are optimised for the Alpha and not i386...like what pct of people are using Alpha?) And there is apparantly no interest in fixing anything or finding out whats wrong because some guy at freebsd with a 2 inch weener keeps knocking me off the list...they dont like criticism. I've already fixed it, so all im trying to do is save you a lot of time doing work thats already been done. > > Pls, can you explain the problem in more detail or direct me to more > detailed > information (how to avoid impacts with STATS ...) I did in my last post. Im sure one of the hackers can explain it to you. Or you can look at the linux driver and see what they've done about it. Maybe if someone who cares is listening it will make it into the tree. db To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
