Red,
Wow, Ma'am or Sir... -- SNICKER
I do believe the nVIDIA nFORCE 2 MCP Integrated controller
will operate
with the /usr/ports/net/nvnet port.
From the port pkg-desc:
bash-2.05b# cat pkg-descr
This port contains a driver for the NVIDIA nForce MCP
Ethernet adapter.
It contains a wrapper that replaces the Linux nvnet.c, and
links against
the Linux binary only object file (nvnetlib.o) included in
the NVIDIA
driver source distribution.
This should work on all nForce and nForce2 based
motherboards that have
the onboard MCP MAC enabled.
Hope this helps.
R.

Dear Ma'am or Sir:
Is FreeBSD in versions 4 or 5 fully supported on the Gigabyte
GA-7N400 Pro2 which uses the nVIDIA nFORCE 2 Ultra 400 Memory /
AGP/ PCI Controller (PAC) and the nVIDIA nFORCE 2 MCP Integrated
Peripheral Controller (PSIPC)? The processor is an AMD Athlon XP
with and nVIDIA GeForce 5200 video card and 1 Giga Byte of Ram.
