FYI, I've tried the driver a number of times since I've had the machine (~1 yr), and the results have been either spectacular lockups, or unable to attach to the hardware. Kernel conf is mainly GENERIC: include GENERIC ident ZOOT machine i386 nocpu I486_CPU nocpu I586_CPU options SC_PIXEL_MODE options SC_HISTORY_SIZE=3D1000 options VESA options SMP device crypto options GEOM_ELI nooptions INVARIANTS nooptions INVARIANT_SUPPORT nooptions WITNESS nooptions WITNESS_SKIPSCAN options ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER device atapicam device vt device drm device i915drm options NDISAPI device ndis The device ids of the card are: none0@pci0:8:0:0: class=3D0x028000 card=3D0x135c103c chip=3D0x4222808= 6 rev=3D0x02 hdr=3D0x00 This is of minimal importance to me - I have wires everywhere and a ural usb stick for when I haven't - but if it helps get the driver debugged, I can try any patchs.
