      Hello,

      how I can get the revision of a network driver?

      If I use dmesg I will get
      dev.em.0.%desc: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Legacy Network Connection 1.0.3
      but in FreeBSD8.1 I should get
      dev.em.0.%desc: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection 7.0.5
      or in Frrebsd8.2 I should get
      em0: <intel(r) 1000="" pro="" network="" connection="" 7.1.9="">Best Regards,
      Klaus Pantleon</intel(r)>

        dmesg is correct. We do not use the stock e1000 driver from FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE (which is what 2.0 is based upon).
