>Description:
FreeBSD 4.10 and FreeBSD 5.2.1 deosn't recognize old onboard Ethernet  Network Card (on 486 based Tulip TC-40.
I've tried several kernels (on 4.10 and 5.2.1) with pcn and/or lnc drivers. The NIC was set as PnP or nonPnP - but the situation alway was the same.   
>How-To-Repeat:
Simply use TC-40 tulip system or motherboard with PCnet/ISA+ NIC or onboard NIC based on AMD 79c961KC chip      
>Fix:
I've tried tu recompile kernel with only one of the pcn or lnc drivers - but without any result.
