Neither is the device listed even as a comment in any stock config file. This and the lack of a manual page led me to believe it wasn't available.

When I add "device ixgbe" to the GENERIC config and try to build a new kernel I get: In file included from /usr/src/sys/dev/ixgbe/ixgbe.c:39: /usr/src/sys/dev/ixgbe/ixgbe.h:87:21: error: tcp_lro.h: No such file or directory mkdep: compile failed *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. Is there any hope of seeing ixgbe fully merged into RELENG_7 soon, or is my best bet to switch to CURRENT? Thank you all for your help. -- Greg Rivers
