I just did a make world/kernel on a box with an old 10Mbps Intel Pro/10 PCI
network card. I uncommented the "device miibus" line in my kernel config file
for the new fxp driver.

dmesg shows this:

fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0x8100-0x811f mem 0xe4000000-0xe40fffff,0xe4100000-
0xe4100fff irq 11 at device 13.0 on pci0
fxp0: Ethernet address 00:a0:c9:57:dc:84, 10Mbps

But there's no mention of nsphy0 or anything about miibus. The card does appear
to be working normally.

I admit that I don't understand just what the new miibus stuff is all about,
but on my other boxes with Intel Pro/100 on-the-motherboard NICs, I see
something like this in dmesg, right after the fxp0 stuff:

nsphy0: <DP83840 10/100 media interface> on miibus0

Can anyone offer any illumination?

Thanks!

Chris Johnson
