You've got some choice at this point though 1 option is probably a little unattractive. Packet Engines GNIC/GNICII devices. - Single source (PacketEngines; http://www.packetengines.com/) - no driver in any FreeBSD source tree. - 2.2 drivers at ftp://ftp.scl.ameslab.gov/pub/drivers/ - Webpage at http://www.scl.ameslab.gov/Projects/Gigabit/ Alteon TIGON 1/TIGON 2 devices. - Multiple sources. + Alteon AceNIC (Tigon 1 and Tigon 2) + 3Com 3c985-SX (Tigon 1 and Tigon 2) + Netgear GA620 (Tigon 2) + (others) - driver in -CURRENT - 2.2 and 3.0 versions available at http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/Alteon Choose wisely. -- | Matthew N.
