Works for me with the newest 7-current commits, but losing carrier
means temporary machine hang.  The other GbE on the board works, too.

Temperature monitoring is also functional.

Be warned that this board even with the newest BIOS does not correctly
do remapping of the physical memory between 3-4 GB to above 4 GB.

Works for me, "nv" driver.  No "nvidia" driver for FreeBSD/AMD64.
