Anybody using these cards?

I've got a pair of machines connected with a crossover cable.

I can ping, including big packets, but I can't open a TCP connection 
over that link.  (Or at least ping worked at one point.  It doesn't 
work now.  ???)

I've also got fxp cards on both machines.  They work fine.
My kernel is compiled without IPv6.


From dmesg at startup:

What does this arrow    ^ mean?
