Hi all, I would like to install FreeBSD 6.2 on a i386 system that includes a Realtek RTL8169 network card, but when booting from the install CD or from the installed system, there seems to be a problem with the driver:
> dmesg ... pci0: <network, ethernet> at device 13.0 (no driver attached) ... > pciconf -l -v ... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:13:0: class=0x020000 card=0x816910ec chip=0x816910ec rev=0x10 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor' device = 'RTL8169 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter' class = 'Network' subclass = ethernet ... > kldload if_re kldload: can't load if_re: File exists I've been running a FreeBSD server in production for over a year now and this is the first time ever I even have to think about hardware. The card itself is a cheap no-name card. What am I doing wrong ?
