I have not been able to find any explicit references to support for these types of cards in PAO documentation, so any assistance would be appreciated. I should also add here, that since my installation of 2.2.7 PAO a few years ago, I have yet to plug ANYTHING into a PAO laptop that claimed to be 16550A based, that didn't happily spring to life [ 1 ]. I'm tempted to just buy a card to try, but I figured I'd ask first. For reference, I am looking for something similar to the Advantech COMPad 32B - 2. Thanks in advance, Guy Boyd reply to: mobile@vta.com ___________________________________________ VTA Inc. / VTA Technologies Atlanta, Georgia PAO since 2.2.7 FreeBSD since 4.4BSD-Lite Release ___________________________________________ [ 1 ]. Meaning just about ANY kind of thing claiming to be a modem. I was both delighted and SHOCKED a few years ago when PAO 2.2.7 successfully probed and attached my Mitsubishi electric FZ-2110A GSM DATA CARD ( GSM cell modem ), 1st plug-in. Downright flabbergasted. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
