    Hello,

    FreeBSD has two drivers for the Intel PRO/1000 cards. gx, which isn't too
    good according to my own experiences and em, which seems better in some
    places (I got much better performance and stability).
    em is written by pdeuskarfreebsd.org, and AFAIK he has access to the
    docs, because he's an Intel employee.

    If you see the FreeBSD CVS commitlogs, he just committed some stuff to
    support VLANs and some other chips, not supported by the gx driver.

    Are there any chances to have this driver in OpenBSD, instead of gx?
