Re: Does Marvell 88E8053 PCIe Gigabit LAN controller work with 6.0?
My mobo has a Marvell 88E8053 LAN controller. It wasn't even detected until I downloaded the FreeBSD 6.0 driver. Once I installed the driver, DCHP worked like a dream and I was right on-line. However, when I installed, 6.1, I lost connectivity again. Does anybody know if Marvell's 6.0 driver is incompatible with 6.1? -- Aaron On 5/29/06 18:56, Olivier Gautherot [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Aaron! Thanks, I changed the RAID configuration to RAID1 and reloaded the OS and for some reason it is now booting up properly. Now if I could only connect to the Net! ;) Oh well, the road to discovery has many detours... Welcome to the club! ;-) I had this issue once too. What network chipset do you have (seems to be on-board, isn't it?) I ended up replacing an old card that I was using happily with Windows, Linux and BeOS because it was not compatible with FreeBSD. Is yours at least detected? By the way, RAID1 is a good choice - better than RAID0 anyway.

Roger, Marvell had the driver on their website. I downloaded the tarball at work and burned it to a CD. I'll try installing it tonight. They also have drivers for 5.* available. -- AV yes it does the driver is myk ... you need to download it yourself.

The speed LED is orange indicating a 100 Mbps connection, but the act/link is off. My ISP supports DHCP. IIRC that is the Yukon chipset. I have one on my laptop and it does not work. They have a binary package for it and they released the source under BSDL for it as well. The problem I have with it is it does not detect the carrier. Check around on the lists and you will find a link to the source. You can find the binary driver on their site. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
