Message after installing

THIS PACKAGE INSTALLS THE NEWER VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE WHICH CAN CAUSE SYSTEM
INSTABILITY WHILE USED. USE THE UPDATED VERSION ONLY IF YOU EXPERIENCE
PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVER PRESENT IN THE KERNEL DISTRIBUTION

Usage:
To load the updated version of the driver add this:

if_ix_updated_load="YES"

to your /boot/loader.conf and reboot the machine.
There's no need to recompile the GENERIC kernel without if_ix driver

After the reboot you may see this kind of messaged in the dmesg:

module_register: module pci/ix already exists!
Module pci/ix failed to register: 17

This is the side effect of the newer version of the driver overriding the
older one and can be safely disregarded
