I've just installed from the FreeBSD 7.1-BETA1 iso and get the
following when the re driver attempts to attach to the two onboard
NICs found on a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 motherboard:

re0: <RealTek 8168/8168B/8168C/8168CP/8111B/8111C/8111CP PCIe Gigabit

Is there any simple patch I can apply to get the driver to attach,
assuming it should work?

Thanks,
Andrew
