Hello friends.
I have recently installed PCI-E Cisco Broadcom 5709 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet 109427-001 N2XX-ABPCI03-M3 adapter (https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/p...-series-blade-servers/1CS5709-TB100-Cisco.pdf) into my old trusty home server running 12.2-RELEASE-p6
The adapter is installed into the PCI-Ex16 slot which typically is used for installing videocards.
Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, like, maybe one simply can't install PCI-Ex4 cards into PCI-Ex16 slots. I actually never tried to install PCI-E cards into PCI-Ex16 video slots.
Nevertheless, despite my best efforts:
The card still cannot be seen by the system. Worse news is it is not listed even in pciconf output:
Here is the full output of pciconf:
