Try setting the pnpos option in your bios to no.
My laptop's intel NIC doesn't get detected otherwise.
Cheers,

Subject: intel etherexpress pro/10 not probed
hi,
i got intel etherexpress pro/10 combo card, which i got from old server,
but i can't get it probed in my home computer. i guess it's not the hw
prblem of the card because the link light switches on when i plug tp cable
in it.
during boot, i got the following:
...

it seems to me, that everything is ok, bot i can't figure out how to make
the system load the appropriate driver. from hardware notes, i suppose
that
the driver (module)should be ex -- even man 4 ex lists this card, but i do
not have this module in /boot/kernel/ and compiling it into kernel doesn't
change anything (it's still not detected :-{) i'm using freebsd 5.0-
release.
thanx for any opinions.
