>Description:
My first installation of FreeBSD was 5.1. Later on, I decided to try 5.2. Neither of these versions were able to identify or use my on-board Intel PRO/100 VE ethernet adapter. There was a patch that generally fixed the problem, so I didn't think anything of it.
Recently I decided to go to the Production release 4.9, and that version was able to identify and use the ethernet adapter without any patches or effort.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compare installations of 4.9 to 5.x
>Fix:
I don't really know how you would fix this. Maybe some code was removed from 5.X that was meant to stay in?
