2) I'm guessing there isn't any support for the integrated Realtek 8169 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter I have. I have a 3com and Kingston network card laying around though that I can stick in, and I'm willing to take a stab at helping whomever get the integrated ethernet controller worker. I don't think I could write one myself, but I might be able to modify an existing driver to get it to work with the right advice.


I'll sync the driver with FreeBSD, that should help.

Supposedly the "re" driver in FreeBSD CVS supports the Realtek 8169, as of September 2003.

Realtek support seems to be completely missing from DragonFly, which I'm sure is because of the driver cleanups or my ignorance in not being able to find it.

Thanks.
