Hi people,
Recently, I installed FreeBSD on a Tyan GS14 barebone, which houses an
bge(4) and a fxp(4). However, FreeBSD does not recognize the on-board
fxp(4) NIC by default.
All that was needed was just an extra PCI ID addition; the patch can be
found at http://rink.nu/tmp/if_fxp.ve.diff. With this patch applies,
pciconf -lv gives:
--
fxp0@pci10:8:0: class=0x020000 card=0x27dc8086 chip=0x10658086 rev=0x04
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82562ET/EZ/GT/GZ PRO/100 VE Ethernet Controller'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
--
And the NIC works fine. Are there any objections to committing this?
Thanks,
--

Are there any objections to committing this?There is another fxp ID as well http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2006-October/030169.html Jack Vogel was going to look at it, but I think he is pretty busy with the em issue and it would be nice to get this in prior to 6.2 as this board is becoming common in the retail channel (around here at least) ---Mike
