>Description:
FreeBSD 6.2-BETA2 running on VMware ESX Server 3.0 uses driver 'lnc' for the emulated AMD PCNet NIC.
Error messages (repeating):
lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer
lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer
lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer
Also, while pinging the host from outside there is an average packet loss of 1% of the packets, while pinging out from the virtual FreeBSD host yields no packet losses.
Apparently there seems to be a problem with the driver or the virtual hardware; now I am not sure where to look - on the VMware side or on the FreeBSD side.
Since it is a compatibility NIC, which would be improved by the VMware Tools, its probable but not obvious, that the problem could be caused by the fact that there is not the proper driver from VMware installed (no VMware Tools available for FreeBSD).
I just thought I'd post a PR, to see if somebody had an idea how to further troubleshoot the issue.
