One of my suppliers has just started carrying a new item, called the
"BookPC", a really nice fully integrated PC (built in AGP video, USB,
10/100 NIC, 56K modem, and AC97 audio) in an extremely small case
(even smaller than MicroATX).  I'd like to buy a couple of these and turn
them into "tiny FreeBSD workstations".  unfortunately, they use an
ethernet controller that is not supported.  It is the Davicom DM9102
(http://www.davicom8.com/lan/dm9102.htm).  Fortunately it looks like this
company is pretty open-source friendly, there is a datasheet that you can
get right off the Web site, and there is even *source* for a Linux driver
(also available on the web site).

It would be great if this chip were supported under
FreeBSD.  Unfortunately, I lack the necessary mojo to pull this off.

Any takers?  Many thanks in advance!
