I have a Sony P3 600 Mhz here with 192Mb RAM. It has a 100Mbits Trendnet Ethernet PCCard which is fully reconized .. same thing for my US.Robotics 11Mbits 2410 Wireless PCCard. Sound is working fine, XFree as well in 1024x768 (24bits if I recall correctly). Firewire is OK, USB has some problems (when connecting a mouse after the computer has been booted, it won't work.. fixed the problem by buying a PS2 mouse :D) The only things that are not working are: - Infrared => not supported by kernel - 56k modem => winmodem sux I also have problems to play video under X because of the late XV support... As I heard, it's coming in the next X version ! If you want more info, mail me! Cya To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
