hi! thanks! i updated to a snapshot and up'ing the interfaces no longer hangs my system, and the nics all seem to work. my original bug was fixed months ago :-D one last concern, this seems to happen often: fugu# dmesg| grep 'watchdog timeout' rge4: watchdog timeout rge5: watchdog timeout rge2: watchdog timeout rge2: watchdog timeout is this anything to worry about?
