Hi,
The network card issue has been solved (but the patch doesn't seem to
be in the official source tree yet), but the shutdown -r problem not
yet:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hardware/2006-August/003652.html
What should I do to get that issue solved? The server is now a few
months "old". Is there a way to get the "core team" have a look on
it, against money or swiss chocolate for example? :)
I can't wait until the end of the year to find a solution :(
Regards,
Olivier

The patch didn't fix our network card issues - they fixed *some* of
them, but we still get watchdog timeouts with NFS mounts.
I've not had the shutdown problem myself though.

Neither could we, we gave up and bought something else.

We've also been able to reproduce this problem (on 6-stable as of 9/13
or so) on the 1950/2950 by saturating the system with outbound UDP.
At the moment we're looking into other NIC's, which we'd rather not have
to do. If there's something else that can be done, such as providing
access to hardware, please let me know as I may be able to help.
I would think that the 1950/2950 is/will be a pretty popular box, so
it'd be nice to see the driver work correctly and reliably on BSD.
Thanks,
Bucky
