Greetings, I have a fileserver I installed this nic on but the device
fails to show in ifconfig
uname:

Except from FRODO kernel file (generic plus some):

dmesg except:
pci0: <network, ethernet> at device 6.0 (no driver attached)
vr0: <VIA VT6102 Rhine II 10/100BaseTX> port 0xdc00-0xdcff mem

The reference to vr0 are for the onboard nic that it is currently
running off of.
ifconfig lists vr0, plip0, lo0
Doing some searching, someone posted this part of dmesg on a 5.4
PRERELEASE system:

I did check the hardware notes before buying this nic, and according
to http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.5R/hardware-i386.html it is
supported. Have I missed a switch somewhere?
Thanks in advance.
