re0 - D-Link DGE-528T not recognised.

Greetings,

I have also just bought a couple of D-Link DGE-528T Gigabit Ethernet 
cards for use with FreeBSD, and I also found that FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE 
did not detect them anymore.

A simple fix is needed to /usr/src/sys/dev/re/if_re.c to add support for 
the rev.B1 version of the hardware.

I have reported the problem using send-pr. It is tracked as 
"i386/112774".  See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=112774 
for more info.

You need to patch the if_re.c file, rebuild a kernel, and then it will 
just work.

Good luck,

Denis F.

PS. For info, here is the required fix:
