    Hi,

    I have the same network interface on Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe. That nve
    driver in the FreeBSD6.0-BETA1
    is very poor. Sometimes it causes a kernel panic, sometimes it hangs
    with device timeouts. I've sent a PR
    about that kernel panic with trace included but nobody has taken care of
    that yet.

    Cheers,

    Gábor Kövesdán
