Hi,

  i just tried to get one of the new Intel 10 GE cards (10 Gigabit AT2
Server Adapter - 10GE, copper with RJ45 connector, single port) with the
82598EB controller, up and running. I upgraded to the latest dev version of
ixgbe (SUNWixgbe at 0.5.11,5.11-0.125:20091013T070442Z), but ixgbe still
respons with '[ID 611667 kern.warning] WARNING: ixgbe1: Failed to identify
hardware'. With the prior release of that NIC card (just 'AT' instead of
'AT2') with the same controller i've seen no problems at all. Any newer
(experimental) driver versions available somewhere i can try ????

many thanks,
  Martin Gasthuber
