Today I've been trying to have a 3Com 590 pci ether adapter
working on a newly installed FreeBSD server, but it didn't work
and I had to put an old and SLOW NE2000 to let the server work.

 In the kernel config I added the line "options vx0" as suggested
from the LINT, but when starting up, the kernel didn't notice
the board, so I tried to contigure the kernel, i.e. type a "-c"
at the boot prompt, but in the network section only the usual
serial and parallel port drivers appeared.
 The hardware is known to work perfectly as I tried it as a client
under DOS.
 I'm running Snapshot with ctm 1873. What's wrong?
