I've got a encore enlwi-g pci wireless network card that has a marvel chipset that is not supported by the current drivers. The ndis driver will run the card just fine. But if I try to load the ndis driver from loader.conf the card errors out and cannot be recovered until you reboot the computer. Unloading the driver and reloading will not work. Loading the driver after the computer is up seems to be the only option. In the loader.conf I have the following. if_ndis.ko_load="YES" ndis.ko_load="YES" Mrv8000c_sys.ko_load="YES" error msg Oct 23 17:57:51 lame kernel: pci0: <network, ethernet> at device 11.0 (no driver attached) Oct 23 17:57:51 lame kernel: ndis0: <IEEE 802.11g Wireless Cardbus/PCI Adapter> mem 0xf4010000-0xf40 Oct 23 17:57:51 lame kernel: ndis0: NDIS API version: 5.0 Oct 23 17:57:52 lame kernel: ndis0: init handler failed Oct 23 17:57:52 lame kernel: device_attach: ndis0 attach returned 6 Is there a way to script the load on start after everything is running? 6.1-RELEASE i386 FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE #0: Mon Oct 23 16:34:04 CDT 2006
