On a nForce 4 board, running:

NetBSD dolomite.xxx.xxx.xxx 3.99.17 NetBSD 3.99.17 (GENERIC_ACPI) #0: Wed M=
ar 15 04:38:49 CST 2006  jakllsch@dolomite.xxx.xxx.xxx:/mnt/wd1a/jakllsch/d=
olomite-current-20060315/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/obj/GENERIC_ACPI amd64

and a 3.0 userland.

dmesg:
nfe0 at pci0 dev 10 function 0: ioapic0 pin 5 (irq 5), address 00:04:61:9d:=
xx:xx
ciphy0 at nfe0 phy 1: Cicada CS8201 10/100/1000TX PHY, rev. 3

pcictl shows device ID 0x0057.

I can get full (a 9.6MB/s scp) receive performance, yet transmit is bad,
it starts at about 3 MB/s then drops to about 24 KB/s.  Sometimes it
seems to lock up the DSS-8+ HW ver G1 switch; the 10Mbit hub doesn't seem
to lock up.  But it's useable enough to connect to home and write this
message.

However this is great progress for NetBSD.  Truly amazing.
