What kind of NIC is it? Type "pcicinf -lv" and look for it.
If you tell us the name, vendor ID and device ID (or even
better, the whole section from pciconf output), someone
might be able to tell you details about the support status
of it in FreeBSD.
After reading
http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-stable@freebsd.org/msg83981.html
I added:
{ BRCM_VENDORID, BRCM_DEVICEIDBCM7808S, HP_VENDORID, 0x16AC,
"HP ... ADAPTER" },
to /usr/src/sys/dev/bce/if_bce.c.
After reboot I get SerDes controllers not supported in dmesg,
device_attach: bce0 attach returned 19.
Pciconf -lv says:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x703b103c chip=0x16ac14e4 rev=0x11
hdr=0x00
vendor = Broadcom Corporation'
class = networl
subclass = ethernet
bce1 likewise.
There doesn't seem to be any available drivers atm. I (even :-)) tried
ubuntu 6.10 server (amd64) and it didn't detect any network-cards
either.
The switch is a 16 ports gb passthrough switch.

Claus
