I did=20 try a quick hack MFC for test purposes but it appears the em(4) driver=20 uses lots of wizz bang features :) I had a look on Intel's site but that just points to FreeBSD.org.. Are there any plans to MFC it? I will have a deeper look on Monday to=20 try my own MFC again, although since I am lazy I'd prefer if someone's=20 already done the work :) =46ailing that.. Any idea how hard it would be to add the ID for this=20 controller to the driver in 6.2? (ie does it need magic not present in=20 the driver) =2D-=20 Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C --nextPart3244894.gJyPqcNSjp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBG8jPE5ZPcIHs/zowRAl3AAJ9iuzcoa7QYPiRddYHE652M23bFmwCeKLiw dLnMy5HzCzqBYxCX1bjvjE4= =3Csp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart3244894.gJyPqcNSjp--
