I have problems with loading if_em as module on 7.0-current from today:

link_elf: symbol e1000_init_function_pointers_82575 undefined

so I compiled in the kernel, and it works, but nothing changed about my
problem - it still refuses to stay on 1000baseTX for more then 2 seconds
and auto-negotiate to 100baseTX.

em0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection Version - 6.5.0> port
0x2000-0x201f mem 0xf0500000-0xf051ffff,0xf0524000-0xf0524fff irq 19 at
device 25.0 on pci0
em0: Ethernet address: 00:0f:fe:4e:78:16
em0: [FILTER]

I'm ready to test any new patches :)

My patch made assumptions about what is causing your problem,
and that may be incorrect. Our test group does not have that Broadcom
adapter but they are going to get one.
I'll make tests with other gigabit network cards (first working day) to be sure that the problem exists only with broadcom then.
They had a suggestion that you can try, go into your BIOS, and
then the Advanced Menu, I believe under that you will find settings
for the NorthBridge, in that submenu there is settings for HECI,
disable that, it is the interface to the management processor.
Sorry I'm unable to find such menu in the BIOS.
This is some new HP's BIOS, that really do not make me happy ...

Then boot up and test again, if it now autonegs correctly then
it is the management getting in your way, on the other hand if
you still see it happen then we're back to square one :)

Good luck,

Jack
