to resolve this ... it turnes out the customer had neglected to
plug the network cable in ...  and had steadfastly claimed that
everything was plugged propperly when we called him. Only today
when we called again and another member of staff went to check, he
found that no cable was connected to the port ...

To to recap ... x540 10 Gigabit Copper Ethernet ports work on
omnios r014 out of the box. IF the cable is plugged in.

cheers
