Hi Guys,

For a while now I have been trying to get 10GbE on my truenas system. I first tried with the tp-link tx401, but it has bad drivers.
So I looked for cards which are properly supported in freebsd.

I read Chelsio has good support so I went with Chelsio and got the Chelsio s320. It was detected immidiately, but no matter what I do I can't get an ip adress.
I tried with dhcp and without using a static ip adress, but no luck.
The card does work on my windows 10 system so the problem is in the truenas system.

Things I have tried:
1. I have followed this guide: https://www.boris-tassou.fr/freebsd-chelsio-n320e/
There were some anomalies. For example when the guide asked me to load the driver using kldload if_cxgb I get an error saying: if_cxgb.ko unsupported filetype.
I got this error before and afther using the cxgbtool. But the tool itself ran just fine.
2. I have tried compiling the driver supplied by Chelsio: https://service.chelsio.com/driver-archives.html, but after fixing the include paths it build with too many erros thus giving me the fatal error: too many errors emitted stopping now -ferror-limit=

Hardware:
MB: intel s5520hc
Cpu's: dual xeon e5540
Ram: 32GB (Don't know the speed)
Pcie cards:
Sata: PCE6SAT-M01 6 sata ports
2.5GbE: StarTech ST2GPEX (for comminucation to other server)
Chelsio s320E (for the transceiver I used TL-SM5310-T)

Also this is on a truenas 13-U1 system.

I am completely out of ideas, can anyone help me?
