I believe I'm using these on FreeBSD at work.  This is likely a BIOS
issue, but I believe we had to disable ACPI in FreeBSD to get the
cards to come up.  We had no issues with ACPI and the dual port cards.

we're successfully using a dual-port intel giga nic card if that helps.

it's an Intel PRO/1000MT - a PCIX part

the boot message indicates it looks like the onboard Intel (em) giga
devices - em0 and em1 are on-board, 2 and 3 are the PCIX ones.

As far as I know it should work.  At least I know for a fact that the
82573 works and it is a newer chipset: http://blog.pfsense.org/?p=156

[pfSense Support] Intel PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Copper PCI-E Support?

2007-12-12 Thread Tim Nelson
Does pfSense (any version) support any of Intel's quad port gigabit cards for 
PCI-E? I'm looking specifically at the PRO/1000PT that uses the 82571GB 
chipset. The FreeBSD HCL lists this controller but I was hoping to see if 
anyone had used it successfully on pfSense. Thank you!
