Are you paying attention? Of course I do, I just wanted to point out that you are generalizing. "The Intel Etherexpress does not work on FreeBSD" is not true - it works for me. There are SOME cards that don't work. > >Have you contributed the fix to FreeBSD? I think I know the answer. > I passed on the info to DG on how to fix it.

You demand others to work for you for free ("Hey I have this problem, everybody listen up and immediately start working on fixing it! Hey, nobody listens, so FreeBSD sux, Linux rox!") You don't want to contribute anything back yourself (you or your company). So you expect others to do what you don't want to do yourself. Is that correct? Yes, I also work for a company (an ISP) and all the work I do on FreeBSD (or other projects) *is* being contributed back to those. We use FreeBSD (for free, obviously) and we "pay" for it by contributing back what little we can.
