AW: Intel embedded NICs not working with FreeBSD 6.2, 6.3 and 7.0

Ok, back again... sorry for letting you wait so long, but i had a lot to do...

Since there's no possibility to copy via putty i'm copying by hand... hopefully there are not too many errors :-)

-----
pciconf -lcv

...
fxp0@pci0:1:4:0: class=0x020000 card=0x00708086 chip=0x12298086 rev=x010
hdr=0x00
class = network
subclass = ethernet
cap01[dc] = powerspec 2 supports D0 D1 D2 D3 current D0

fxp1@pci0:1:5:0: class=0x020000 card=0x00708086 chip=0x12298086 rev=x010
hdr=0x00
class = network
subclass = ethernet
cap01[dc] = powerspec 2 supports D0 D1 D2 D3 current D0

fxp2@pci0:1:8:0: class=0x020000 card=0x30118086 chip=0x103a8086 rev=x010
hdr=0x00
class = network
subclass = ethernet
cap01[dc] = powerspec 2 supports D0 D1 D2 D3 current D0

dmesg shows for example:

fxp0: link state changed to down
fxp1: link state changed to down
fxp2: link state changed to down
fxp1: link state changed to up <- when I attach a network cable to a switch

-----
devinfo does not work... does not find the command (it's the freebsd under pfSense)

-----
vmstat -i

interrupt total rate
irq0: clk 1348688 999
irq5: ehci0 9043 6
irq8: rtc 172621 127
irq10: fxp1 91 0
irq12: fxp0 86 0
irq14: uhci0 ata0 792 0
irq15: ata1 2738 2
Total 1534059 1137

Hope you can use this information ?

Regards,

Martin

Hi !



I am in contact with Chris Buechler because of pfSense and we he told me
to contact Jack Vogel because of some Intel NIC driver problem.



FreeBSD detects them as fxp cards which is correct, but they do not work
at all, i tried in ACPI and non-ACPI mode and with enabled ROM and
disabled ROM and everything, but I cannot get them working...

I always get "fxp0 timeout" or fxpX fort he corresponding card... I read
it might have something to do with dynamic powersaving mode or else but
have no clue how to deactivate, there's no option in the ROM for this.



It's an appliance board (NexCom EBC575) with Intel 845GV / Intel 82801DB
(ICH4)-chipset and 2 x Intel 82551QM (PRO/100 Network Connection), 1 x
ICH4 integrated LAN Int on board.



Is there anything I can tot o make it work for now or is it a known
problem or else ?


Since there are too many variants of fxp hardwares it would be
even better to post the output of the following.
o pciconf -lcv
o dmesg output related with fxp(4)
o devinfo -rv | grep oui
o vmstat -i



Regards,



looking forward to hear from you,



Martin
