Hello,
I'm a newwbie on OpenBSD and I've installed it on a IBM P100 Computer.
I have a "Intel 82557" NIC inside. This NIC can be seen as fxp0.
My problem is:
When I don't use the comuputer during about 5 minutes, my NIC "go to
sleep" and don't want to receive or send any frames.
But if I press a key on the keyboard or if I connect by SSH through
another NIC,fxp0 works again during about 5 minutes. It is a strange
behaviour.
I don't know if it is a bug or a feature, but I didn't see anything
about that in the FAQ or in the the manual. I've verified with tcpdump,
when my NIC is sleeping, it don't view anything.
Thanks for your help...
Excuse me for my bad english....
PS: My NIC works well with Linux.
Pascal S.
