Hi

I have install FreBSD 7 (June snapshot) in my Dell LATITUDE D820
laptop. I am facing e serious problem. whenever i want to bring up
the bge0 interface using following command nuke#ifconfig bge0 up
panic: invalid ife->ifm_data (0xa) in mii_phy_setmedia cpuid = 0
KDB: enter: panic
[thread pid 834 tid 100078 ]
Stopped at kdb_enter+0X2b: nop

Then i can't do anything. I had install 6.1, that works fine. Then
from 6.1 i sync the current sourec and recompile system, but there
was an error during compillation. Then i have downloaded and
installed the snapshot and facing this problem.

Please let me know how can i get rid of from this problem. Thanks in

Hi Nobel,

I'm the proud owner of a Dell Latitude D620 and I faced the same problem
like you. Using 6.1 I was able to use the bge-nic but on CURRENT it
panics everytime I try to use it (Set it up or assign an IP-address).

The problem is probably, that the PHY of the be-nic isn't recognised
and a generic PHY attaches (See your dmesg: ukphy0).

Please try the attached patch. It make the Broadom-PHY attach to the
card. For me it works great, although it does not solve the firmware
handshake timeouts.
But please note: I'm no c-programmer and the patch may be crap, but at
least it works ;)

Can you try also making this ID upload the 5750 dsp code to see if that helps
with your timeouts? Something like this:

(This would be in addition to your current patch)
