     As far as I can tell, the Maestro-2 is not yet supported, even in
FreeBSD-current (I'm getting a laptop with a Maestro-2 chip, and so this
is of interest to me).  I've heard rumors of "soon" (perhaps within the
2 or 3 months), but nothing definite.  Hopefully, someone who has hard
information will comment.

     However, 4Front Technologies supposedly sells commercial drivers
for FreeBSD 3.3 and -current, and the Maestro-2 is supposed to be
supported.  I don't know how well they work, though.  For more
information, see:
