Please try to enter a return on occasion. These long, long lines are a pain. (Yes, mailers may wrap what you type, but they send it a one long line of test, contrary to the RFC which recommends keeping mail lines (plain text ones) to 72 characters. You are going to have a few problems, I fear. Support for the Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG is in its very early stages and is a bit rough, but all reports. (It uses if_wpi.) Intel 945GM support is reasonable, but it is also fairly new and there have been a few problem reports on some systems. I'd suggest i386 rather then amd64 for the moment. There are too many ports that are not yet 64-bit clean, although things ae getting better fairly quickly. While it is not released at this time, you really want to run FreeBSD V7.0 on such a laptop. It is very near ready for release and should be available by the end of the month. That said, I'd get the latest 7.0 release candidate rather than fight with 6.3, the latest release of that version. This is especially for the wireless card, but many laptop features are better with 7.0. You will have to load the wpi until/unless you rebuild the kernel as it is not yet part of the GENERIC kernel on the CD, but that is a one-liner. I should warn you that you will not be able to suspend the system. That is not yeat supported for SMP systems. (Of course you could disable SMP but that is a bit excessive.) The 7.0-RC is on the FreeBSD ftp server at: You will want disc1, at very least. The other 2 CDs contain pre-compiled packages which I never use. I always prefer to build from scratch, but using packages is certainly faster than building. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.

I had first tried versions of these files downloaded from various places without success. Using the files from the Windows partition on the same laptop (in /mnt/dos/WINDOWS/Lan on my Acer), it works flawlessly.

Though the driver is marked experimental, it's working fine for me. I suppose you already tried to load the firmware yourself? # kldload firmware wpifw wlan_scan_sta The driver is not yet capable of loading wlan_scan_sta itself, so I suggest to inlcude it if you want to scan for networks.

So, here is on you local machine should be directory (if not you may process it by sysinstall) /usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-2 So, make follow: su - cd /usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-2 make make install This will work (in case you are onlin ;) ) - will fetch all of necessary tarbols, sourcess as of OpenOffice as of dependencies. As well it is possible to compile source by yourself or use platform independed installer (that is using Java as for installation as for operation). So refer to www.openoffice.org to fetch latest copy of source (big bundle), see building WiKi, etc... If you need detailed process description for building open office - let me know.

I have done before ndis utilization for this, but... hmmm... It is not really what I wanted. Idea is to find/make kernel based driver/module (similar to related Linux project).
