It depends on what you mean with 'use'. As far as I know the HARP
signalling stacks supports all the QoS stuff, the supported hardware,
however, doesn't. PCA200E cards support only UBR + a maximum of 1 CBR
channel. FORE HE cards on the other hand are fine: they support up to 4k
of CBR/ABR/UBR connections, but there is no HARP driver for them.

Well, I have a completly new ATM stack, implemented in netgraph that
supports both Fore cards. You can use whatever QoS you need and the cards
supports, with the native API. My LAN emulation does not (yet) support
QoS, and CLIP is not yet ready (and I won't be able to fix it in the next
couple of months).
