[-- Attachment #1 --] hi! i've ported Kevin Lo's openbsd driver for these realtek chipsets to FreeBSD. It works well enough for me to use on my laptop w/ RTL8125B / Killer E3000. I'm now opening it up to others who are willing to build/run a kernel module to test the driver out and report back. The driver source is at https://github.com/erikarn/if_rge_freebsd/ along with build instructions. Please note that I'm only running this on -HEAD and I plan on landing it on -HEAD before /maybe/ backporting it to stable/15 after the 15.0 release. I've no idea if it compiles or runs on stable/15 or the 15.0 pre-release images. If you're willing to give it a whirl then please do and report back but I'm unlikely to add explicit earlier source tree support in this repository (as again I'm going to land it in -HEAD.) Thanks! -adrian [-- Attachment #2 --] <div dir="ltr">hi!<br><div><br></div><div>i've ported Kevin Lo's openbsd driver for these realtek chipsets to FreeBSD.</div><div>It works well enough for me to use on my laptop w/ RTL8125B / Killer E3000.</div><div>I'm now opening it up to others who are willing to build/run a kernel module to test the driver out and report back.</div><div><br></div><div>The driver source is at <a href="https://github.com/erikarn/if_rge_freebsd/">https://github.com/erikarn/if_rge_freebsd/</a>; along with build instructions.</div><div><br></div><div>Please note that I'm only running this on -HEAD and I plan on landing it on -HEAD before /maybe/ backporting it to stable/15 after the 15.0 release.
