Need just a little help. would be much appreciated

[mike hell]

hello
my name is mike and i was wondering if you could possibly help me for
just a minute.
i have come to a dead end with getting my nic card to work in freebsd
4.8
it seems that with the nic i have i need fxp
this is my nic card info from windows.

and well i have added fxp to my kernel and rebuilt it.
device fxp
but it doesnt see it. and when i do ifconfig fxp
it says no such device. i looked in src/pci for if_fxp.c and
if_fxpreg.h and if_fxpvar.h and nothing listed in there. i am in a
way new to freebsd well since 4.0. i would ever so grateful if you
could help me get my nic up and running. buying a dell with this
intergrated nic card has been a nightmare but there is nothing i can
do its on the board. and i love freebsd. if possible just the correct
steps to get it to see the card and have the driver installed. so i
can get online.
thank you for the time in reading this. it means the world to me.

fxp is already in the GENERIC kernel, did you take it out from your
kernel config?

Could you email your kernel config file, as well as the output from
dmesg after boot up?

Running ifconfig (without fxp) should list us all devices. I think your
card should be fxp0 not fxp.
