Looking for driver help

Yeah this is the same conclusion I came to in essence of anything existing.
I'm going to hit up the freebsd-drivers list however and see where I end up
after that. The cards might wind up in the garbage can or sold off cheap
unfortunately if I can't get them functional with FreeBSD, which is pretty
sad for a bunch of dual 10g cards. Thanks for the effort though, I do
appreciate it.
