Replying to [comment:1 tonestone57]:
> FreeBSD drivers (like this one) are meant to be imported only without
any changes to code or name.
That's not entirely correct; while this would be the perfect aim to just
to that, sometimes it's just not possible, since FreeBSD has a different
interrupt model that can only be worked around using the glue code to a
certain extent. In this case, if I understood modeenf correctly, he had to
work around a few ISO-C99 issues which is not supported by GCC2.
While modeenf did not really work as clean as he should have (as pointed
out by Michael on the mailing list), and as he was told to before having
done anything, too (by myself), if the card is not detected anymore, it
might actually be that the original driver dropped support for it;
otherwise it is of course possible that modeenf messed something up, but
that shouldn't be implied :-)
Can someone add the exact PCI device ID of that card to this ticket?
