> Is there any near plan to develop drivers for network cards > based on broadcom NetXtereme II 57710 10 GbE controller? I have written a driver to support the 57710/57711/57711E parts, bxe(9), but I haven't released it as I haven't been able to get much testing mileage on it. The biggest challenge is the wide array of PHYs used in the 10GbE space which makes testing a complex issue (I think we have 7 or 8 PHYs today which various customers use). If there are some developers who are interested in getting a version of the driver and helping work out some of the bugs please contact me directly. Ideally I'd like to have this driver ready for 8.1. Dave
