My verbose dmesg was in my original mail (not attached, just after my
signature), I hope it is not been removed from some MUA :-)

Unfortunately I need this machines in production and I must stay with
6.2(-stable if needed)

I saw your commit on -CURRENT for BCM7574 on Dell SC440 (did you
received my mail ? :) )

Do you plan/know if/when it will be backported to RELENG_6 ? (maybe for
6.3 ?)

Thanks a lot!
