It is busy in that I am generating some data on it for my research
group (but I am the only user); however, my sundays are my own, so I
was able to apply the patch (by hand; patch(1) didn't like it) and
recompile.

I have two (verbose) dmesgs that are available, should be
https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/kaduk/www/current/dmesg.bfe.128
and
https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/kaduk/www/current/dmesg.bfe.511
respectively; hopefully they will help

I am currently running the 511 kernel; the 128 didn't find an IP via dhcp..

Thanks for investigating this,

Ben Kaduk


Sorry for the extra email; I should add (to save you digging through
the archives) that this is a
bfe0@pci2:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x81271028 chip=0x440114e4 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation'
device = 'BCM4401 10/100 Integrated Ethernet Controller'
class = network
subclass = ethernet

If I find time, I may try (e.g.) 127, 512 for these values later today.
