It doesn't offer anything at install time (only slip and ppp) and shows nothing in ifconfig when running. The one thing I see in dmesg is: pci2: at device 0.0 (no driver attached) Some pages I've found say this is a Broadcom 5721J chipset: http://www1.ap.dell.com/content/products/features.aspx/servers_Q4_W5_2007-12-01_pedge_t105_Q421211?c=my&cs=mybsd1&l=en&s=bsd An Ubuntu message says they see it with a Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5722 driver: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3961378 Any suggestions on how I can poke at it to find what kind of hardware it's using and what driver I need to use for it? Thanks.
