Hi,

NVidia ethernet controller seems not to be supported in FreeBSD, at 
least in version 4.8, 5.0, 5.1.

This controller can be found on Asus A7N8X (*not the deluxe version*) 
and the SN41G2 from shuttle barebones.

Is it planned to be supported ? if yes, when is it scheduled ?
Since I own a SN41G2, I can test it.

If it is not planned, then how long would it takes to code it ? (only 
needs to support pci as far as I know)

What would be a good starting point if I wish to code it myself ? (let's 
suppose...)

There is some Linux drivers code on Nvidia.com (and some .o object in 
elf, grr...), could it be of some use ?

Should the code be made by Nvidia itself ?

Thanks for any kind of informations,
