Yes, I've tested and it seems works very well.
I'll continue to use and test exchanging info with sephe.

Thank you.                   \fer

Ferruccio Zamuner has tested it, it works as he reported.

There are still things that I want to further investigate:
1) It is reported unloading the module will panic the system
2) Jumbo buffer is not enabled, since tester's NIC (YukonII FE typed) probably
doesn't support it
3) Currently the card uses ukphy(4), though the PHY module is produced by
Marvell and type is 88E3082, I am wandering whether it is necessary at all to
change e1000phy(4) to operate at 10/100Mbit only
4) Test this driver with some YukonII GigE cards ('Ancient' is going to do that :-)

Thank Ferruccio Zamuner very much, for his kind testing and timely feedback :-D

sephe ported msk from openbsd, could you please try

<http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~sephe/msk.tbz> and
<http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~sephe/sk.diff> ?

I will try to port msk(4) from OpenBSD, hope it will work for you.

Best Regards,

ok:

    vendor   = 'Marvell Semiconductor (Was: Galileo Technology Ltd)'

Thank you in advance,            \fer

NDIS is a hit or miss affair.

    Try posting the pciconf -l output, we might be able to add the chipset
    to an existing driver.

ndiscvt first fails for UNICODE in yk51x86.inf, I've used iconv:

iconv -c -f CSUNICODE -t US-ASCII yk51x86.inf > yk51x86_a.inf

then ndiscvt gives me more parse errors and I've add comment to remove 
for following lines:

;HKR, Ndi\Params\WakeUpModeCap_A\enum,	"25",			0, %Magic Packet%
;HKR, Ndi\Params\WakeUpModeCap_A\enum,	"26",			0, %Pattern Match%
;HKR, Ndi\Params\WakeUpModeCap_A\enum,	"27",			0, %Mag Pack Patt Match%
;HKR, Ndi\Params\WakeUpModeCap_A\enum,	"28",			0, %Link Change%

I report them here because I don't know how if they are to fix or to remove.

Now ndiscvt completes, but make fails:

% cd /usr/src/sys/dev/netif/ndis
% make
% make clean

I leave a complete archive at:

I'll appreciate any hint or help.
