https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arch/2018-October/019167.html talks about removing 10Mbit/100Mbit ethernet drivers. This is not an objection to the proposal, just an FYI. As I remember all the PowerMac/PowerBook/iMac/iBook G3's did not have 1GBit Ethernet built-in: just 10Mbit and 100Mbit. Also the earliest G4's did not (e.g., AGP's and 350 MHz PCI), including the PowerPC Mac-mini's. (All the G5's had 1Gbit Ethernet as I remember.) I'm not sure which FreeBSD drivers covered the various examples of lacking 1Gbit Ethernet. The proposal may be eliminating built-in-ethernet support for (some of) the oldest of the Apple PowerPC machines for all I know. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar) _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ppc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
