In my case it was detected immediately and coupled with the fxp driver enabled in GENERIC. FWIW the output of pciconf -lv on my notebook yields this: fxp0@pci2:8:0 class=0x20000 card=0x0200107b chip=0x103d8086 rev=0x81 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation device = '82801DB (ICH4) PRO/100 VE Network Connection' class = network subclass = ethernet I don't know enough about these numbers to say for sure but obviously your output and mine are quite different, particularly WRT "card" and "chip". Are you absolutely sure you have this particular adapter and not some variant? G
