Dear All, I am the user of FreeBSD 6.1. Recently, i buy a new server for my company which is a Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 (1.86GHz) with Intel D946GZIS mainboard, 2GB Consair DDR2 Ram, 3Ware 9500S-4LP, and 4X Seagate 250GB SATA II Harddrive. But when i install the on-board LAN card driver by activating the default fxp option, it is invisible. Here are my problems: 1. Is Intel Core 2 Duo is now supported by 6.1? 2. Is chipset 946 is now supported by 6.1? 3. Why the fxp option being invisible in sysinstall screen? I have searched around the Internet with google, but no answer. I hope the experts from her can solve my problems. Thank you very much. -- Cheers, Johnie Wong

It's a pretty common occurrence, especially with Intel NICs. Post the complete output of `pciconf -lv` (preferrably as an attached text file) and someone will see if this is the case. -- Darren Pilgrim
