For the MCP67 gigabit ethernet device, a pci binding entry
for the nge driver is missing. Running as user root, try
# update_drv -a -i '"pci10de,54c"' nge
Followed by
# ifconfig -a plumb
# ifconfig -a
Now you should see a nge0 interface.
This should be bug 6638017,
nge driver should support nVidia on-board Ethernet (pci10de,54c)

Sometimes there is an issue with the nge driver getting the
device's MAC address reversed, and nge is unable to receive
non-broadcast traffic. Workaround for this problem is to use
manually set a MAC, probably best to use the device's real MAC.
This is bug 6658667
nge - ethernet address reversed on nForce 430 chipset on ASUS M2N motherboard
