I'm using 1.7.X in my open-source DPDK-based app and it works, but I have an IGB 1-gigabit NIC though, and how RX / TX work are quite driver specific of course. I suspect there's some issue with how things are working in your IXGBE NIC driver / setup. Do the same failures occur inside of the DPDK's own sample apps? Matthew.
