There is a man page for the device (man fpa or man fea). It's in sys/pci (if_pdq.c and pdq.c). You need to pick up if_pdq.c and pdq.c from -current since I have since made a few important bug fixes. The driver is fully functional (in fact I switched my FreeBSD system over to the building FDDI so that I don't even use Ethernet anymore). I was doing some testing last Friday between a DECpc XL 590 and an AlphaStation 400 4/233. Using ttcp I could get over 10MB/s transmit throughput over TCP and 12.3MB/s over UDP.
