Despite some documentation that implies that the QGE NICs are supported in Ultra 10s, Sun Support says they are not. I need Sun Support for this system, so whether one could patch or write new drivers that would make them work in the Ultra 10 is moot. I need to go with a workaround using QFE NICs in this Ultra 10. No VLANs for me. On 9/15/2006 at 5:18 PM, "Crist Clark" <Crist.Clark@globalstar.com> wrote: > I just swapped out a Quad FastEthernet (qfe) card for > a brand new Gigaswift Quad (ce) card.
