Asus P5Q support
Hi there,
Where are we concerning the Asus P5Q serie GB lan support ? For who dont know these MB have an atheros integrated lan chipset that is not natively supported by FreeBSD. The workaround consist in installing an addon network card ofc. But since Asus provides linux drivers it should be possible to make BSD drivers, no ? Does someone managed to get the Onboard lan working ? |

I have an Asus P5QL-E with an Atheros chip. Since FreeBSD 7.1-RC1 exists the driver ale which supports my Atheros chip.
See this site: http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/ale/ mousaka |

Great news, thanks.
Not sure if P5QL-E and P5Q have the same network chipset but that worth the time to test it anyway. In windows it seems to be the same driver so I have good hope |
|

Bleh, the driver dont support 7.0 p6.
I think I will wait for 7.1 officially out. I can live with the add-on network card in the mean time. |
|
|||
Good news. With 7.1-release the network driver exists and works ok. ale driver. It's not activated by default so you have to do some loader.conf declaration.

Anyone tried/install 7.1-RELEASE on a P5Q-EM? I want to downsize my current workstation
|
|

Ping? I could buy a P5QL Pro, anyone tried?
