Could everyone which has problems with the fxp(4) driver mail me some
informations ?  I'd need the exact symptoms, the output of ifconfig on
the interface, the part of pciconf -lv relevant to your fxp card, your
kernel configuration file and the output of dmesg.  That would be help
me a lot to understand what's going on, since I can't reproduce these
problems on any of my fxp(4) cards.

Since this is a commonly used driver in the FreeBSD community, I've put
a kernel module for fxp online, built with the sources prior to the
busdma commit.  It's at http://people.freebsd.org/~mux/if_fxp.ko.gz.

11 April ?  Did you make a typo ?

Thanks,
Maxime
