Hi Ho, sorry for top posting... I contacted the Broadcom developers mentioned in bxe(4). Very friendly guys. They said that they're about to give the driver to FreeBSD someday in May (2013). I guess that didn't happen yet. I'd suspect it has something to do with broadcom's internal procedures... Since they were that open minded and friendly I'll just go and drop them another email and ask them how the driver is doing. Until than... there's not much you can do except waiting, I guess. I'm also waiting for support of this driver. Preferably in 9-STABLE :) BeSD regards, Marian Am 2013-05-29 15:13, schrieb Herve Boulouis: > Hi, > > I just tried to install 9.1-STABLE on a Dell M620 and it seems its > network cards (Broadcom NetXtreme 10G BCM57810) > are not yet supported by the bxe driver. > > I looked into -head but the driver doesn't seem to support it there > either. > > It looks like there are some efforts ongoing : > > > http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/panic-at-serial-boot-td5799226.html > > Is there some test code I could try ?
