Hi,

After moving my ADSL bridge from le0 to hme0 I get these strange messages:
Oct 29 20:27:30 sparc /netbsd: hme0: status=3D10<LCNTEXP>
Oct 29 20:29:05 sparc /netbsd: hme0: status=3D110<LCNTEXP,SENTFRAME>
Oct 30 20:31:26 sparc /netbsd: hme0: status=3D400<MAXPKTERR>
Nov  1 23:18:17 sparc /netbsd: hme0: status=3D10<LCNTEXP>
Nov  1 23:20:46 sparc /netbsd: hme0: status=3D3000010<LCNTEXP,HOSTTOTX,TXAL=
L>

Those are the different messages, LCNTEXP, SENTFRAME is the most
common and with traffic I get 10 or so of these a day. These messages
only come when I use pppoe on hme, when using the integrated le
interface for pppoe it's all quiet. Is this a problem with my ADSL
bridge or is hme just screaming too loud? The system is ss5 with
netbsd-3 but it was like this with 2.x too.
