Just knowing "pciconf -lv" is not enough. Since 7.0 didn't recognize your controller I guess it could be newer revision from RealTek. There is a WIP version that try to add support for newer controllers. In order to try the WIP version you have to update to latest 7-stable first and apply the following patch. http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/re/re.HEAD.20080610 The patch still have some issues but it should detect/recognize your controller. > > I'd recommend you start by providing pciconf -lv output here. > > -- > | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | > | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | > | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | > | Making life hard for others since 1977.
