Support for INTEL high-end server cards

2002-04-01 Thread Forrest Aldrich 

Is there support somewhere for the high-end Intel (fxp) server optimized 
network cards?  This one I have has the Intel i960 chip, the model number 
might be 687231-006.

I ask because the lastest FreeBSD 4.5 snapshot installation did not pick up 
this card, so I used a lower-end 3com.


Thanks.

There is indeed support. I have multiple machines at work and 
one at home with fxp cards; they just sit there and move data
fast. 

I'm more than somewhat surprised that your install didn't see 
the fxp card out of the box, so to speak. Mine always have.
