Use the latest Broadcom driver from FreeBSD CVS. The one included in

Which driver is that? My 6.1 install won't see them at all:
pci4: <PCI bus> on pcib4
pci4: <network, ethernet> at device 4.0 (no driver attached)
pci4: <network, ethernet> at device 4.1 (no driver attached)
Also, I'm running 6.1-RELEASE, will the cvs drivers from CURRENT work?
They're working for me.

You have to get the if_bce.c source that has this in it:
/****************************************************************************/
/* BCE Driver Version
*/
/****************************************************************************/
char bce_driver_version[] = "v0.9.6";
and then recompile your kernel.
