OK Thanks, I just switched back from an xl ro an rl card,
I just tried above sysctl s, no help.
BTW I dont know if ifconfig -a should show word polling, but it does not.

With an rc.conf of
# media 10baseT/UTP
# media 100baseTX
# media full-duplex
# media half-duplex
ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.91.64 media 100baseTX polling"
ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.91.64 polling"
inetd_enable="YES"
before enet cable plugged in I see
rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu
1500
options=8<VLAN_MTU>
ether 00:08:a1:6d:65:07
inet 192.168.91.64 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.91.255
media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
status: no carrier
& after plug in I see:
rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu
1500
options=8<VLAN_MTU>
ether 00:08:a1:6d:65:07
inet 192.168.91.64 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.91.255
media: Ethernet 100baseTX
status: active
& I see in dmesg
rl0: link state changed to UP
I suspect I perhaps have something fundamental wrong with BIOS or PC
or similar. May be nothing to do with 7.1-BETA ?
I think Id better perhaps try with 7.0-RELEASE if you guys dont mind.
Hmm I'll dig out a spare disc rather than erase 7.1BETA then I can
test with either if you have any more ideas.
Cheers,
Julian
