Success upreving 3.7 to use the following versions of sis driver code.
if_sis.c 1.45
if_sisreg.h 1.21
3.7 shipped with the following rev
if_sis.c 1.43
if_sisreg.h 1.19
I did an incremental update to the first rev available after 3.7 but I was
still seeing input errors on the interface.
if_sis.c 1.44
if_sisreg.h 1.20
It took me quite awhile to get back to checking out the problem I was
having with a sis embedded NIC on a low end Walmart Linux computer I
installed OpenBSD on. Turns out not only did 3.6 not work, but neither
did 3.7, so I installed a dc card and kept working. Today I was forced to
get it working on a new system we got in that I needed to convert to
OpenBSD. FWIW, here's the entire dmesg output of the $199 Walmart
Microtel system. :-) It's stock except for the 1GB memory stick we add to
all the nodes. ;-)

Can you say cheap cluster nodes, for $16 more you get a 3 year REPLACEMENT
warranty.
