As the subject states, my question pertains to Intel's new (or relatively new) PCI PRO/100 ethernet adapters. I have a number of these cards currently running on a 10Mbit hub and I would like to use them under FreeBSD. At the moment I am led to believe they are not supported. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe that any PCI network cards are supported. Basically I would like to know if there is a possibility that these cards will find support under FreeBSD (or Linux for that matter) any time soon. For the time being I am only interested in running them at 10Mbit speeds and possibly later upgrading our hub to handle the fill 100Mbit bandwidth. If anybody has any more information about drivers for these cards or if you know who I might contact please let me know. I really appreciate all your help in this newsgroup. You have all been very helpful in the past and I hope you keep up the great work. Please respond via e-mail as I don't always get a full newsfeed. Thanks again!! Sincerely, David M. Fogarty
