I just recompiled a 4.10 kernel with bfe support. I grab source code from http://people.freebsd.org/~dmlb/bfe-4.8.tar.gz
At boot time, I get: pci1: <unknown card> (vendor=0x14e4, dev=0x170c) at 14.0 irq 11
When I try to insert the driver manually: module_register: module pci/bfe already exists! linker_file_sysinit "if_bfe.ko" failed to register! 17
I think I'm gone go back to Linux...
cheers,
Guillaume

You may have to build a kernel with the "device bge" # gig cards
"device bfe" # 10- 100 cards
entries to build the moduals, I would have thought they were with the base system. But I had to build a kernel
for the bfe modual to work.
Side note: The bfe entry is not in the GENERIC kernel on 4.10 but will build and work. The bge modual would not find my broadcom 4401.

bge gives me exactly the same error message. And still nothing like "bge0: ..." in dmesg output.
Try bge.
