H There. Sorry for that. I ran into a couple of cheap ethernet cards (free in fact) and I'd like to know if they're supported by FreeBSD. I'll list the ones that were not burnt out :-). card name: Manufacturer: Biggest chip on board: PCnic (16 bits) IMC networks DP8390DN ?? Corman Custom Elec. Corp COM9026 LCS-8634 (rev 2a) ?? DP8390BN isolink pc-at contr. BICC data networks AM7990PC/80 Can anyone tell me - how to install any of the above cards - where to get drivers or patches for these cards I found that the FreeBSD kernel (al least the one I use) can be config'ed to run the DS8390 chip. Does this mean that - any card with a DS8390 chip on it can be used? - the kernel will also support the DP8390 chip, for example on the PCnic? Thanks for reading this mail so far. Hope you can help me. Kees Jan Kees Jan Koster: dutchman@spase.nl (after 31 december: ux005489@tfarn.nl) Happy Christmas and a merry new year. May your computer never hang in '95.
