To do so I was comparing the vendor ID and device ID numbers from other systems I have and noticed that according the boot logs this device: bge0@pci5:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x01851028 chip=0x165914e4 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 is identified by 6.1-PRE as bge0: <Broadcom BCM5721 Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x4001> mem 0xdfaf0000-0xdfa This is what Dell claims is in this server (Dell PE800). However, according to pciconf -l -v the PCI database claims it is BCM5750A1 NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express So something disagrees with something here. I never really opened up this box to find what chipset was *really* in there, and I send the original PR that got the PE800 ethernet support into FreeBSD 5.4, so it could be Dell's error in their literature. >How-To-Repeat: n/a >Fix: Resolve the inconsistency between if_bgreg.h and if_bge.c and the pciconf database. I have no idea how to figure out which is more accurate. I suspect pciconf is. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
