Port-Dreamcast,
I'm extremely new to NetBSD and Unix in general, what is the "mbe driver"
and what is the "MTU?"
Thanks,
Michael

Subject: Lan Adapter MTU
Due to the large packet transmit crashing wierdness (I think that's what it
is) in the mbe driver, I thought it would be a good idea to kick the MTU
down
a notch to see if I could artificially get around the problem.
The interface doesn't seem to support changing MTU size. The ifconfig man
page states that most interfaces don't support MTU changes. This seems a
bit
odd coming from the FreeBSD world. Is MTU tweaking a portability issue?
