HI!

Got @work a new Dell 1750 machine, serverworks Chipset w/Xeon CPU, also
dual gigE Broadcom chipsets.
FreeBSD 4.8-R failed to recognize the chip, but Knoppix 3.2 (Linux
Distro, based on debian iirc, recognized the broadcom chips, iirc as
5704 ones)

pciconf gave me the following values:

class: 0x020000
card: 0x014a1028
chip: 0x164814e4
rev: 0x02
hdr: 0x00



As far as I looked also under /usr/share/misc/pci_vendors that
particular tag seems not to be listed there, also in the cvs this that
was not noted.

Could someone shed some light thereon, if/when this could/will be
supported?

TIA
Olaf
