Hi

just updated my sparc/netbsd system kernel to the 1.5.1beta (uname reports 
as "NetBSD noosparc 1.5W NetBSD 1.5W").  The problem that I am encountering 
is to do with the sparc Quad ethernet sbus card (this all works under 
1.5.1ALPHA).

/var/log/messages tells me:

Jun 11 16:55:16 noosparc /netbsd: qe1: resetting...

if I replace the old kernel, it works again.

any ideas? is this known? is there more info that would make debugging this 
straightforward? [aiming to use ipf/ipnat/ipsec, so the latest kernels are 
of importance to me!]
