Hi I had one of these cards and I couldn't get the Cable modem to talk to the card at all. It wouldn't even pick up an IP address!! Put a PCI 3com card in the box and all has been fine ever since.

Not to start a flame war here but I'd be willing to bet that Slashdot does NOT move to FreeBSD. If you noticed, yesterday was April Fool's Day and there are always jokes on Slashdot on 4/01.

Well, see another thread ("Network performance question"). 3Com 905 does the
same thing for me. It's... hmm. Evil. I bought some cheap RTL 8139's and
they're working fine without problems. (Well, I didn't say they're the best
NIC's but they work for me, a lot better than expected.)

Perhaps the xl(4) or mii is evil? We've bunch of these cards working with
Solaris 2.6/x86, Linux and NT, flawlessly AFAIK.
Donald Becker as of Linux drivers stated that it's a nice piece of hw as
far as I remember. He had some dedicated webpages somewhere at nasa.gov.
fxp(4) on the other hand is rumored to intervene with vinum's raid5... :(

I have one that I had to add the sbc device but the rest all worked with nothing more than "device pcm". Sound is much easier on 4.x because it is consistent there. You have to worry about pcm0 or pcm1 on 3.x. When you get the kernel made, installed, and reboot. The device shows up in dmesg. You make a device for /dev/snd? where the "? is the digit on the end of your pcm? device from your boot. I had to do a ./MAKEDEV snd0. When I finished I had sound.

Yep -- thanks, that was it. I must have clobbered it when I ran mergemaster. John To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message

Proposed changes to Makefile in /etc/mail
In http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=26299 I've proposed changes to the Makefile in /etc/mail that I think makes it easier to reconfigure sendmail. Right now, to change sendmail.cf, one edits "freebsd.mc" and rebuild sendmail.cf from it (unless one has changed /etc/make.conf, which many administrators don't know about). Besides being platform-specific, this makes it more difficult to use one's library of .mc files from other systems and adapt one of them to a new system. The change adds 6 lines of code that I've had in my own Makefile for some time. They tell the sytsem that `hostname`.mc -- if it exists -- should be the default .mc file that is processed to make sendmail.cf. (The `hostname`.mc convention is a longstanding one; it's used in the samples in the source tree.) Thus, one can bring in one's collection of existing .mc files, create a new file with the new host name, and carry the expanded collection onward to the next machine one configures. It also makes it easier to describe the process of configuring sendmail to an inexperienced sysadmin. You can say, "Enter the command 'cp freebsd.mc `hostname`.mc' and then edit the file you created." Greg is concerned about bloating the Makefile, but since the change is only 6 lines and it makes life so much more straightforward, I'd like to see it in there. What do folks here think? Should these changes (or something like them) go in the file? --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
netstat
Hi all, I have been experiencing some strange behavior with netstat. It only displays UDP sockets for the inet family. TCP sockets do not show up. I know it is listening on TCP sockets because I can ssh/telnet/ftp/etc to the machine. Netstat has been exhibiting this behavior from a make world 2 weeks ago. After updating my source tree today from cvsup10.freebsd.org and rebuilding the world I am getting the same symptoms. I'd love to put up some debug info for someone to figure this out, but I have know idea what to put. Is this problem just me? pointers/tips welcome Galen Sampson __ Do You Yahoo!?
