Hello,

Out of general principle, I would like to get the
onboard NIC working on an MSI K7N2 Delta-L mobo. I
have checked the archives and googled this issue. I
found A LOT of discussion. To sum up, Bill Paul was
trying to get nVidia to cooperate, but they were
having none of it. According to
http://www.onthenet.com.au/~q/nvnet/ a driver is
available via ports/net/nvnet, but my fresh install of
5.2.1-Release doesn't have that port. I can pull it
from the site, but before I needlessly mung my system,
does anyone know if it works? If it was in ports
before, why is it gone now?



You need up update your port tree.



Seems likely. Although the port was added in December and tagged in both 4.10-RELEASE and HEAD at that time, it must not have MFC'ed->RELENG_5 until after 5.2.1 was released (in January, IIRC), therefore a CDROM ports tree of 5.2.1 wouldn't include nvnet.

It is there now.  I don't know if it works.  Grit your teeth and
hang on!  (Seriously, I really doubt it'd be in there if there were
any serious problems at all, but YMMV....)
