I installed FreeBSD (5.2.1) on a laptop for the first time yesterday and so far everything has worked flawlessly. I have a HP Pavilion ze4630us that has a NatSemi 10/100 NIC as well as a Broadcom BCM94306 802.11g chip. I've checked out the Hardware Notes for 5.2.1 and not suprisingly (since there isn't even a native linux driver yet) it wasn't on the list. I am able to get the chip working under Linux via ndiswrapper which basically loads the windows driver for it. Is there anything like this available for FreeBSD? I am crossing my fingers, as I don't want to have to reboot to Linux everytime I need to leave my desk and need network access. Is my only alternative purchasing a supported 802.11g PCMCIA card? If so, any recommendations? Thanks for your time. -- Aaron Walker <[email protected]> http://ka0ttic.dyndns.org/ _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
