I'm wondering if the problem might be related to the fact that the drivers don't support shared IRQ access. There is a warning at boot time that the drivers weren't able to be given exclusive access to the IRQs. However, the kernel is reporting that the different cards have different IRQs (17 and 18.) Maybe the interrupt is coming in for one of the cards but is being handled by the other ISR? burris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
