The primary NICs are Broadcom, the secondary ones are Nvidia as part of the chipset (FreeBSD does not recognise those). One issue I have is that the embedded management software can run on NIC 1 only. And once FreeBSD detects this, the embedded management software is disabled. Does anyone know of a way to make FreeBSD detect NIC 0 only? Another funny thing is that the embedded management software works under MSIE only. Not exactly what I would expect from Sun. :-) Apart from the issues above, I have no problems whatsoever. -- Jens
