--Apple-Mail-22-371482942 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed I just took delivery of a Dell PE800 tower server. I installed 5.3-RELEASE amd64 on it, but it is not finding any ethernet device (there is one built into the mobo). According to the Dell PE800 spec sheet (http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/en/800_specs.pdf) it is a "Single embedded Broadcom 5721 Gigabit Ethernet controller". I've never had issues with network controllers on dells before, so I didn't pay any attention to this before I bought it. Does there exist a driver for this thing? For now I guess I need to just slap in an old fxp card I've got sitting about to get this up and running. Any help would be appreciated. Or is it a supported chip and I just have a dud?
