Hi Hans, I'm using FreeBSD on my normal laptop and my eeePC 900 gadget; my Openmoko will arrive next week (hopefully) and so I'm interested and willing to test your stuff (hoping that it is based on RELENG_7); > Secondly I plan to add support for RNDIS so that you can access the OpenMoko > phone through USB ethernet.
