>Description:
As stated in /usr/src/UPDATING the old way of enabling polling through the MIB "kern.polling.enable" is deprecated. Instead ifconfig should be used with the parameter 'polling'.

Doing this in /etc/rc.conf like in

ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.204.32 netmask 255.255.255.0 media 100BaseTX mediaopt full-duplex polling"

doesn't work in 6.1BETA2 anymore.
>How-To-Repeat:
              
>Fix:
Use the old way (MIB "kern.polling.enable")
