It has dual Broadcom BCM5704C copper interfaces, which are supported by the bge(4) driver. I've tried this againt a managed gigabit switch: I plugged in both interfaces, and start out at 10baseT. Increasing to 100 works fine, but going to 1000baseT causes the link to drop. I've tried using ifconfig to force media settings, and these also only work up to 100baseT. I've also tried the cabling and switch with other gigabit gear, and these negotiate fine. I also had this machine running Linux at one point, and it negotiated to gigabit then, so the interfaces themselves shouldn't be the problem. Any ideas?Hi,Can you post to the list the output of ifconfig -aand dmesg and uname -a
I've upgraded to 6.1-RELEASE, and it seems like the problem has gone away. I used to get lots of messages like this:
bge1: link state changed to DOWN bge1: link state changed to UP but now I just get the link state changing to UP once. -- -- Skylar Thompson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- http://www.cs.earlham.edu/~skylar/
