 Hello,
 
 I just tested if_bge.c (Revision 1.154) on every bge(4) machines I have.
 
 I downloaded (using FTP) an i386cd.iso successfully.
 I also uploaded a few text (dmesg, sysctl results...) file onto my NFS serv=
 er.
 
 Everything seems to work nice.
 
 The following hardware was tested:

 Dell D430 and D630 already worked OK before the patch, and still do after.
 Dell M1330 and Lenovo S10 didn't work before the patch, and do now.
 
 My source tree was from syssrc.tgz, updated this evening from netbsd-5 and =
 where
 if_bge.c only was replaced with the one from -HEAD.
 
 Hope it helps,
        Jo
