We am attempting to use Via NAB-7500-15TLG (i386 using a 1.5Ghz C7) for
an in house embedded project and running OpenBSD4.5 from the snapshot
directory as of 5/20/2009. This particular board has five on board gig
NIC's (four using the VT6130 chipset and one using the VT 6122 chipset
which will both use the vge(4) driver). When the system comes up we have
vge0-2 which leaves us with two missing NIC's. Looking at the schematic
for the board two of the 6130's and the 6122 come off of the Southbridge
chip (VT8251 in this case) and these are the ones that work. The other
two Nic's are on the Northbridge (CN896) (did they run out of
channels/id's on the Southbridge?) and they aren't showing up. It is my
assumption that since it's not traditional to have NIC's hanging on the
Northbridge the system simply isn't looking for them. It is also an
assumption (at least a WAG if not a SWAG) that this shouldn't be too
difficult to fix since we have a good driver for the NIC's if the system
can see them. That said we don't have the skills necessary in house to
add NIC probing the CN896 code and were hopeful that someone would be
able to help us out.

I know this isn't a 'bug' so please don't think we are asking for it to
be treated as such. Since we are developing these systems with the
intent of using them to replace all of our commercial firewalls (Ci$co
PIX/A$A's and a couple of M$ I$A's) and will be saving loads of money if
we can get it working  that we shouldn't have an issue providing a board
to test on if necessary and maybe even beer money for the next
hack-a-thon for the developer(s) that take this on.  Please let me know
if interested and able to help or if you can point me at the maintainer
for this piece of code. Dmesg follows.

Thanks,
