That's a solution too, but I bought these cards especially for these
machines (my goal is to set-up a redundant router/fw with pf/carp and
two Sun ultra 5 equiped with DFE580 nics)

I googled against vtophy and found references about the bus_dma
conversion (http://www.squish.net/pipermail/odc/2005-May/004343.html)

I'm not a guru of kernel hacking but I can try to do the job... if
someone can provide me some pointers on how to do that ?
