I can supply some hardware if > anybody is interested if it's not available. Have you had any luck with this? What kind of hardware are you trying to use? I looking at trying to implement drivers for this http://www.dontronics.com/giga.html The manufacturer helped the Linux people write drivers for so it shouldn't be too hard to get them to help us. Or at the very least, we just borrow the Linux driver. Either way, I've never written a BSD driver before so I'm probably not the best person for this. But I'll give it a try in a few weeks (after graduation). To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
