>>> the sourcecode can be porting to freebsd but not including to kernel

not quite sure about this... obviously enough, licences are there for a rea=
son.

There=E2=80=99s a difference between finding the code, and having
a licence to use it=E2=80=A6 If I=E2=80=99m not mistaken Adrian already
has access to the proprietary Broadcom driver through his
work, it=E2=80=99s more of a licensing issue.

Still a nice find though, with this and the Cypress
datasheets some things may become a bit easier.
