I'm trying to get a 3c590 ethernet board to talk to my FreeBSD 
2.1 (Walnut Creek CD-ROM) and having no luck. I've downloaded if_vx.c 
and if_vxreg.h from -current and referenced if_vc in my files.i386, but 
the kernel compile fails with 3 messages complaining about if_vx.c 
referencing an unknown "if_softc". So, my real question is: as a non C 
speaking person, should I not worry about making this 3c590 work just 
yet? Or did I just miss a simple step in installing the driver?
	Thanks all concerned!
