Hi:

The problem is that the network card is not detected, is a network card=20
Boradcom in the mother board. I see a chip with this numbers:

Broadcom
BCM5751FKFB
HS0521 P21
744910 N

Whit "dmesg | grep -i ethe" I got:

pci2: <network, ethernet> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)

With "pciconf -lv" I got:

none3@pci2:0:0: class=3D0x020000 card=3D0x02f71014 chip=3D0x167e14e4 rev=3D=
0x11=20
hdr=3D0x00
=A0 =A0 vendor =A0 =3D 'Broadcom Corporation'
=A0 =A0 device =A0 =3D 'BCM5751F NetXtreme Fast Ethernet PCI Express'
=A0 =A0 class =A0 =A0=3D network
=A0 =A0 subclass =3D ethernet

The manual for bge(4), says:

bge -- Broadcom BCM570x/5714/5721/5750/5751/5789 PCI Gigabit Ethernet adapt=
er=20
driver

is this nic supported?

TIA
