Greetings,

I've a strange problem here.  My home nameserver machine had been
running 1.4.2 for last three months without a problem, and I decided
to move to 1.5.  So, I halted it, booted netbsd.ram from the old root
filesystem, and now the 1.5 kernel has some really eerie problems with
qe0.  The symptoms are as follows:

# ifconfig qe0 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00
ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS qe0: Device not configured

One might think at this point that the kernel can't see qe0.  But,
from /kern/msgbuf:

qe0 at uba0 csr 174440 vec 764 ipl 17

It can definitely see the card, but it can't use it for some reason.
Any ideas?  I already did re-disklabel & newfs over the 1.4.2 system,
so I won't be able to return to the old system unless I setup network
boot and restore the backups manually.
