Hi,
I install FreeBSD 6.1 on a new Dell Precision 390,
which has an on-board BCM5754 GbE NIC that was not
recognized. A quick look into the CVS shows that its
support is added at if_bge.c rev. 1.91.2.15, later
than what is found in 6.1.
So I performed cvsup, rebuilt world and kernel with
if_bge as a separate module. Loading the module after
reboot put kernel to fatal trap 19. Furthermore, the
device "recognized" by the module is wrong - BCM5787
instead of BCM5754. (I checked with pciconf that the
on-board GbE does have the device ID of BCM5754.)
Below is the fatal trap message -
bge0: <Broadcom unknown BCM5787, ASIC rev. 0xb002> mem

I suspect some problem in if_bge for BCM5754 when
merging the device driver source with HEAD after 6.1
release, but I do not have enough knowledge to debug
the driver. I hope someone with knowledge of if_bge
device driver source could help. Please let me know
if other information is needed. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Edward
