No. I bought one by mistake (thinking it was an NE2000-compatible); for me, it was more cost-effective to buy another card than to write the driver. > I have one such card and have been playing around with the idea, with > little success so far. Any suggestions on where to obtain documentation > about writing for the FreeBSD pccard services are also welcome. Documentation on the chip (AM79C940) is readily available from AMD's web site; note however that this chip is _not_ (even slightly) compatible with the other similarly-numbered chips for which FreeBSD drivers already exist. The AMD datasheet appears to give all the info needed to write a driver, but you will be starting from scratch.
