Hi Everybody:

I cc'ed questions since if this turns out NOT be a driver related
issue then hopefully someone can tell me what's going on.  I have a
Asus Eee Box PC with Intel Atom NS270 1.6Ghz model B202.  I've
installed FreeBSD 7.0-i386-RELEASE and currently going to try
7.0-i386-STABLE on it. I've done a lot of Googling and Nabbling to no
avail! :D!

My first issue is the onboard wireless card, PCI id: 1814:0781: RT2790
Wireless 802.11n 1T/2R miniCard, does not work.  It looks like its a
ral derivative which the driver doesn't recognize (from the driver
source as well as man, looks like it doesn't even support this family
of chipset).

Is there a driver for this chipset?  If not, why not?  :D!

Thanks!
