Unless you crave headaches, these aren't the ones you want to deal with. Second of all, find out what model the SMC is. If it's a 9432TX, it will work very well with FreeBSD (if it doesn't, let me know and if we can't get it working, I'll buy it). FreeBSD has very good support for Intel NICs, so they would be a good solution too. --- Andy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
