I followed your path, did a fresh build and install of the kernel and 
the world -- to no effect. The scenerio is still the same.


Thanks for all the suggestions.

Dear Pietro

Did that, and nothing happened. The OS is still not going anywhere -- 
i.e., not responding to ifconfig up or down instructions, and response 
from ifconfig re0 remains the same. As suggested by Abdullah, I will try 
to cvsup with RELENG_7 and rebuild the world/kernel. Let's see what happens.


Thanks to all.

Problem with IF_RE

2008-06-23 Thread freebsd

Dear List Members

I am having an issue with a RealTek card for networking. The card in  
question is recognised by FB alright, as you can see in the pciconf  
output


[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2:8:0: class=0x02 card=0x311a1385 chip=0x816910ec  
rev=0x10 hdr=0x00

vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor'
device = 'RTL8110SB Single-Chip Gigabit LOM Ethernet Controller'
class  = network
subclass   = ethernet

But when I do an ifconfig, the result says Media None and No Carrier

re0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500
options=9b
ether 00:1e:2a:3b:2e:62
inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffe0 broadcast x.x.x.x
media: Ethernet none
status: no carrier

I know for a fact that the cable and the connection is alright -- I  
tried with other devices (like Laptops and other desktops), and when I  
plug the cable into the RTL card, the light on the switch shows  
connection established.


But ifconfig report shows "no carrier" ? ? ?

Any and all help is highly appreciated. I have already CVSupped twice  
within this week and built world and kernels from scratch as well.
