Dear *,
A colleague and I have tried getting a DGE-500SX to work
under FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE.
However, without much success. :-(
The card is recognized by the kernel:
Feb 25 16:41:05 wid /kernel: lge0: <Level 1 Gigabit Ethernet> port
0xa800-0xa8ff mem 0xdd800000-0xdd8003ff irq 9 at device 13.0 on pci0
Feb 25 16:41:05 wid /kernel: lge0: Ethernet address: 00:50:ba:ec:45:b5

Feb 25 16:41:05 wid /kernel: xmphy0: 1000baseSX, 1000baseSX-FDX, auto

ether 00:50:ba:ec:45:b5
media: Ethernet 1000baseSX <full-duplex>
status: active
However, when trying to ping something, I never get replies, only the Opkts
increase:
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
lge0 1500 <Link#2> 00:50:ba:ec:45:b5 0 0 45 0 0
lge0 1500 fe80:2::250 fe80:2::250:baff: 0 - 0 - -
lge0 1500 140.78.6/24 140.78.6.66 0 - 6 - -
Has anyone got this card to work? I could not find much about
it in the mailing list/Usenet archives.
TIA for any pointers to further information or useful tips!
