I have delt with IMB support but since I run gentoo they are not much if any help at all. I compiled the drivers they provide with the same results. I tried booting from gentoo live disk.. I am running out of ideas. I have tried doing this on different network switches differnt cables... and still nothing. I can not lower the mtu on *any* on my Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme nics. I have 5 of these boxes! Same results on all. my test is this: ping -s 5000 somehost.inmy.lan works as expected. ifconfig eth0 mtu 1492 ping -s 5000 somehost.inmy.lan nothing.. and of course I set my mtu back to 1500 everything works fine. I have done this same test with machines with different nics and everything works. I am building 2.6.20 now in hopes it may fix something. Any ideas? Thanks -- Created with VIM & mutt.
