Thanks.  I'll give STABLE/8 a try.

OH, as to my last statement, the code in CURRENT will NOT work on 8.0 RELEASE, it would require a change to sys/conf/files, and it also has a fix in the stack that is not
in RELEASE. SO taking the latest would require you take the whole tree.

    The device subfamily on those motherboards is called PCH, and its
    only in the em driver as of
    last December, The CVS delta of if_em is 1.27. You can either
    update to STABLE/8 or CURRENT.
    If you wish to just pull the e1000 driver directory it should work
    fine in 8.0 RELEASE also.

    Cheers,

        I recently picked up a H55-based motherboard, and the ethernet
        interface isn't autodetected.  dmesg lists it as the following:

        pci0: <network, ethernet> at device 25.0 (no driver attached)

        And pciconf lists this:

        no...@pci0:0:25:0:      class=0x020000 card=0x00008086
        chip=0x10ef8086 rev=0x06 hdr=0x00
          vendor     = 'Intel Corporation'
          class      = network
          subclass   = ethernet


        I'm actually not sure it's an em device, but it's definitely
        gigabit, and googling suggests that others have recently run
        into the same issue.

        Since I'll probably have to recompile, is this currently
        working in recent builds of 8.0?  This was just a vanilla 8.0
        release image.  Would some simple change tell the driver to
        recognize this card?

        Thanks in advance.
