Hi ! =20 I am in contact with Chris Buechler because of pfSense and we he told me to contact Jack Vogel because of some Intel NIC driver problem. =20 FreeBSD detects them as fxp cards which is correct, but they do not work at all, i tried in ACPI and non-ACPI mode and with enabled ROM and disabled ROM and everything, but I cannot get them working... I always get "fxp0 timeout" or fxpX fort he corresponding card... I read it might have something to do with dynamic powersaving mode or else but have no clue how to deactivate, there's no option in the ROM for this. =20 It's an appliance board (NexCom EBC575) with Intel 845GV / Intel 82801DB (ICH4)-chipset and 2 x Intel 82551QM (PRO/100 Network Connection), 1 x ICH4 integrated LAN Int on board. =20 Is there anything I can tot o make it work for now or is it a known problem or else ? =20 Regards, =20 looking forward to hear from you, =20 Martin
