Or later? If not, is there any clue to patch the existing driver which claims to support this controller but actually doesn't. The linux driver does, but FreeBSD and linux driver frameworks (and quality) are not closed enough to do the trick easily. A quick look at pieces of code seems to indicate that a BCM800x ground would be needed. But we miss any data sheet... Any information, even negative, is welcome. Regards,
