Hi,

Finally had time to test.
Everything works for me.

When will this be committed to -current?

Rgds,

Patrick

supports MSI/MSIX so I need user's feedback to improve it. If you have
one of nVidia network adapters that have MSI/MSIX capability please give
it spin and let me know how it goes on your system.
