gem(4) fails with 5.1.2 kernel



Hi,

I would like to update a 3.1_PATCH system to the latest 5.1.2 release.
It is a PowerMac G4 (AGP Graphics), 400MHz, 1.2 GB RAM.

For a test I booted with a 5.1.2 GENERIC kernel and configured the gem(4)
interface. It didn't work. I cannot ping any host on my LAN.

ifconfig(8) reports strange capabilities for gem(4). Something like:
        capabilities=800

...without naming the capabilities. In the 3.1 kernel there were some more
capabilities, with their names in brackets.

What happened? Is it a known problem?
