	I've used FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE for a few years now, and have been
using a D-LINK DFE-530TX (no +) successfully. FreeBSD has always detected
it as rl0, and it has worked perfectly as such. Now, I want to install a
second ethernet card, and a purchased a DFE-530TX+. FreeBSD does not
detect the card correctly, and instead says that it's an unknown card
(vendor 0x1186). Also, BIOS detects both cards properly.

	How can I get the kernel to find the card properly? I've tried
using UserConfig, but there are only 10 choices for network drivers, and
the one I have isn't listed. Besides, shouldn't it already be loaded with
from the prior card? I realize that the "+" and the "no +" cards run
officially on different drivers, but since my original works with the rl0,
I would think that both should work with the rl(4) driver.

	Any help? Thanks.

Curry
