I have an ISA EtherExpress PRO/100 Card here. On the bigger chip we find: ES9752ABC4 DP83800A VF 10/100 Mb ISA MAC on the smaller one it is: ES9752ID DP83840AVCE I think the second line is the important one. It also got a 25MHz oscillator and a (empty) ROM socket. It got three LEDs: 100, ACT and LNK. A while eago, I asked on the lists about support for it but the answer was no. -Andre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
