Hello,

The motherboard of my HP proliant DL360 G4p was changed and now I
cannot see my network cards (BCM5704 netXtreme dual gigabit). I'm
running FreeBSD 6.2 p5...

Here is what I have in dmsg

bge0: <Broadcom BCM5704 B0, ASIC rev. 0x2100> mem 0xfdef0000-0xfdefffff
irq 25 at device 2.0 on pci2
bge0: Reserved 0x10000 bytes for rid 0x10 type 3 at 0xfdef0000
bge0: firmware handshake timed out
bge0: RX CPU self-diagnostics failed!
bge0: chip initialization failed
device_attach: bge0 attach returned 6
bge1: <Broadcom BCM5704 B0, ASIC rev. 0x2100> mem 0xfdee0000-0xfdeeffff
irq 26 at device 2.1 on pci2
bge1: Reserved 0x10000 bytes for rid 0x10 type 3 at 0xfdee0000
bge1: firmware handshake timed out
bge1: RX CPU self-diagnostics failed!
bge1: chip initialization failed
device_attach: bge1 attach returned 6

here is what I have in pciconf -lv

bge0 at pci2:2:0:	class=0x020000 card=0x164814e4 chip=0x164814e4 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Broadcom Corporation'
    device   = 'BCM5704 NetXtreme Dual Gigabit Adapter'
    class    = network
    subclass = ethernet
bge1 at pci2:2:1:	class=0x020000 card=0x164814e4 chip=0x164814e4 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Broadcom Corporation'
    device   = 'BCM5704 NetXtreme Dual Gigabit Adapter'
    class    = network
    subclass = ethernet

Does somebody have an idea about what is the problem and how to correct
it?

Thanks in advance

Carole Macheret
