FreeBSD 5.3 doesn't recognize the internal ethernet. Looking at historical posts, I see two others posted similar questions in the summer. With no positive response. The sad thing is that I tried SuSe, Knoppix and Mepis, and they all "auto-configure" the ethernet. I'm not flaming FBSD, heck I've got 8 FBSD servers and I wouldn't run _anything_ else, but setting up a laptop is a nightmare. Can anyone point me in a direction which will get my ethernet going? Yes, I can use a PCMCIA ethernet card (which I have), but it's a shame to not be able to use the built-in ethernet. TIA Jim Pazarena
