Hi,
How often is this crash? (daily, weekly, monthy...)
What's the freebsd version you're using?
Can you try your card in an other PCI slot and do you have other PCI devices?
Does this reset and/or crash could be related to high i/o or something else?
We have a similar, but a 4port (9500S-4) controller with 5.5 and in a PCI-X and
works fine.
64bit support in freebsd differs from the PCI 64bit. In a PCI-X slot, the 64bit
is the databus
"width", instead of the normal 32bit. You can's enforce it, but it
works automatically in PCI-X slots.
(A dmesg and a crash dump, if you can provide it, would be nice for the
developer guys imho.)
Regards,
Andrej
