Sounds like the bge(4) driver might work. Take a look at "pciconfig -lv"=20 to identify the chip and PCI vendor id. Try adding that information to=20 src/sys/dev/bge/if_bge.c::bge_devs[] and subsequent chip revision arrays. = =20 It's easiest to build a kernel w/o device bge and loading bge from=20 modules. This way you can cd to src/sys/modules/bge and "make load;=20 #test; make unload; #change source; #repeat" until it works. =2D-=20 /"\ Best regards, | mlaier@freebsd.org \ / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | mlaier@EFnet / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News --nextPart32384406.7d5tQoNgAs Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBHaml0XyyEoT62BG0RAu6JAJ4siW1lj/psgDkefZ4N5P+2FuYTOwCdFCu/ mdJ+XPLur18lW4v8MvAF4Jg= =tBtJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart32384406.7d5tQoNgAs--
