Hi,

I would like to use the Asus P6T motherboard with PCBSD (FBSD 7.2) but not sure if the LAN device is supported.  According to the MAN page for the re(4) driver it's not.  The P6T has a Realtek 8111C chip.  

The re(4) MAN page lists a similar device, the 8111S but I'm not sure if that covers the C device too.

I Googled around and found some information that suggested the 7.2 release does support the C chip but it's not completely clear.

Is the MAN page just out of date and the Realtek 8111C LAN chip is supported?

If not, how can I fix this short of buying another NIC card?

Tnx, Jeff
