And should already be in the GENERIC kernel. I've never had one onboard, only 3c905 look-alikes, which required nothing special.

This is what "pciconf -l" says about my two fxp's: fxp0@pci0:11:0: class=0x020000 card=0x000c8086 chip=0x12298086 rev=0x08 hdr=0x00 fxp1@pci0:12:0: class=0x020000 card=0x000c8086 chip=0x12298086 rev=0x08 hdr=0x00 Am thinking you are lacking the "device fxp" line in your kernel config. Try loading the kld version with "kldload if_fxp.ko" and see what happens. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
