Ok, the firmware handshake does not really load any firmware. This just checks that the firmware on the NIC has responded to a reset and is back up and running. The error here is due to the fact that the firmware initialization seems to take longer on the 5705, so the timeout has to be increased. Thanks for a couple of other people, I have made changes to deal with this. Please download the latest driver code from the same URL (http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/Broadcom/5705). This should fix the problem with the timeout, as well as a few other things. -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (510) 749-2329 | Senior Engineer, Master of Unix-Fu wpaul_at_windriver.com | Wind River Systems ============================================================================= "If stupidity were a handicap, you'd have the best parking spot." ============================================================================= _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers_at_freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscribe_at_freebsd.org"Received on Tue Jul 15 2003 - 15:01:32 UTC
