if_bge.c,v 1.91.2.15 2006/08/02 15:01:59 glebius although it detects the NIC as 5714... maybe it's 5714 and not 5780 ... but it works... :) Thanks for the hints --- Best regards Pavol Čierny > The best solution would be to MFC the driver from -CURRENT to > 6.1R, the second alternative would be to add the 5780 PCI > vendor/device ID to the 6.1R driver, add a BGE_ASICREV_BCM5780 > definition to if_bgereg.h, and make sure that any references to the > 5714 also include a reference to the 5780.
