The 5940 works just fine with the en(4) driver. Sorry, writing the ATM stuff for the handbook is still on my TODO list...

These are now cheap on e-bay. If you need VBR you should stick to an IDT77252 based card - the ProATM cards are very fine (www.prosum.fr) (see patm(4)). For UBR either card should do it. For ABR you can use either the ProATM or the HE155. harti -- harti brandt, http://www.fokus.fraunhofer.de/research/cc/cats/employees/hartmut.brandt/private [email protected], [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-atm To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
