Hey - me too 8-))).
Took hammer and nail and killed my second wd8013ep. Same thing happened: The
card was hardware configured to IRQ 10, IO 300 and got reprogrammed to IRQ
6, IO 220. I reset it and it's working again (if someone else is asking:
Remove the card from the network, set the jumper to IRQ 3, turn the computer
on, turn it off, set the jumper to IRQ 10). It's the distribution kernel of
1.1.5.1... Try improving the probe of the ie driver (take a look at
Mycroft's patches) and you'll have fewer unhappy people.
But let's get to the things I wanted to bitch about: The source distribution
has the obj-links in the tar files. Now imagine someone starting from
scratch with a completely empty /usr/obj (running NetBSD alpha you're
getting used to nuking your entire tree by rm -rf /usr/obj/*) typing make
obj... Right, he's frustrated. And will have to type
find /usr/src -name obj -exec rm {} \; to get rid of the links to get it
to run. You might consider changing the make rules...
