<pre wrap="">Generally the X540 has had a good track record. I brought up the support for this a long time ago, and it worked alright then. I think Dale has an X540 in-house which works fine too (he should confirm this).
Some other things to check:
* Is your BIOS set to map the PCI-E space into the low-32 bits only? That's an illumos limitation.
* Do you have other known-working 10GigBaseT chips to try?

I will check with the BIOS, altough I thought that this option
would simply cause PCI adaptors to vanish from the system, if
setup that way.<br>
Actually, I have been going with Intel all the time and it has
been up to the X540 in 10GbE setups only, when I ever startet to
experience issues at all, so Intel has been a natural choice for
me ever… ;)<br>

I just checked the BIOS of my new Supermicros and I think that this
is the BIOS option you were referring to…<br>
<br>
Above 4G Decoding: DISABLED<br>

So, this should be right, shouldn't it?<br>
