BTW checkout this link http://www.onthenet.com.au/~q/nvnet/ You say the ids seem to be there, do you mean in /usr/ports/net/nvnet/=20 wprk/src/if_nvreg.h? This will be different on your machine: $ pciconf -lv|grep nv nv0@pci0:4:0: class=3D0x020000 card=3D0x10001695 chip=3D0x006610de rev=3D= 0xa1 =20 hdr=3D0x00 but does the chip equal 0x00D610de on your machine? D6 is the chip id =20 an 10de is for manufacturer.
