Is EtherExpress driver that supports BPF available now? If so, where? The driver included in the 2.1.6 does not support BPF and so I cannot use tcpdump etc. which need BPF. FreeBSD team looks aware of the problem and is trying to rewrite the driver's code. (Accroding to the Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook247.html) Any status on this?
