Dell PowerEdge 1750

[Jon]

I've installed BSD 5.0, 5.1, 5.2 and all have the same problem using the
Broadcom GigE interfaces.

Initially the interfaces would stop working. After applying Bill Paul's
recommended changes to the bge source that problem went away.

What is still happening is when the interfaces are pinged every 203 or
so
packet is dropped. This was tested on 2 seperate switches and from machine
to machine. I installed Win2K and RH 9 and the problem doesn't exist
(wanted to make sure it wasn't a hardware failure).

The problem doesn't appear to be bge specific either. The ske driver does
the same thing with Linksys cards.

Anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this? Thanks.

Jon
