[cod] FreeBSD Question

[csmith]

I'm pretty sure the bge driver is what you're after for the proliant 
server, no idea why it isn't detecting it for you automatically though. 
Looking through the mailing lists it seems like it was a known issue in 
4.x but was eventually fixed. If you aren't able to get anywhere with 
the problem, try the FreeBSD lists, they are usually very helpful.
