There's certainly the moral equivalent of that message (at least in 2.2.7). The message "[no driver assigned]" appears if a network card is detected but there is no driver in the kernel. In my case, I had a 3C900B which was not supported by the 2.2.7 GENERIC kernel. (I fixed it by getting the "xl" driver and the card is now working, apparently properly.) -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
