Hello All, I have been trying to get FreeBSD 7.0 amd64 to run on my hardware: motherboard: ASUS P5N-EM-HDMI chipset: GeForce 7100 / nForce 630i processor: intel core2 quad Q6600 I have installed from the release ISO image, and everything seems to install fine. However, I can't seem to get the network card to be recognized. I have tried using both nfe and nve kernel modules, but neither one seems to identify with the onboard network card. dmesg reports: pci0: <network, ethernet> at device 15.0 (no driver attached) Is there another module that uses the drivers listed here?: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_nforce_1.25.html Or another way to get the network card working? I have also considered going the ndisgen route and trying to use the windows drivers that came w/ the motherboard, but I'm thinking that there's a better solution to this problem out there. Any Ideas? Thanks, Mike
