      Hi!

      I have a mini-ITX board from Commell with 4x LAN and it seems like FreeBSD 6.2 dose not support the Marvell E8053 chipset that is on the board.
      There are driver’s available http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDisplay.do?dId=139&pId=35 for this chipset and FreeBSD 6.x but I´m new to this and would need some help. Is it possible to get the driver into the pfSense some way and how do I do that?
      I’m new to the with FeeeBSD and Unix and not so familiar with how it works in this world ???

      Thanks

        We tried these drivers already with a nexcom system but they don't fully work and have several issues.

            Not likely that anything has changed since earlier this year, I wouldn't recommend trying.
