I recently purchased a new system to be used as a guinea pig. But the 4.5R doesn't recognize my P4PE's bcm5702 gigabit lan. I grudgingly upgraded to 4.7R in hopes that the bge driver would be able to recognize my nic, no joy. After doing a little searching, I found the diffs that support my nic and I am happily running 4.7R with my new system. Granted it's not 4.5R but it'll do. (I could try to patch the 4.5R as well). My question is, has anyone else had this problem? I searched quite a bit before resorting to looking at the code which ultimately did make me happy. I am just curious when the bge release bge drivers will support my 5702 nic. thanks b Need a new email address that people can remember Check out the new EudoraMail at http://www.eudoramail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
