There was just a question on the mailing lists about a smiliar chipset. The original subject was "nVidia chipset - ethernet support?" I still have a few of the responses in my in box and I would be more than glad to forward them on to you. FYI: its located in the ports collection "nvnet" http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=nvnet&stype=all More information can be found at: http://www.onthenet.com.au/~q/nvnet/ Pete __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
