I am afraid I have had no luck with freebsd. My sis900 network card is recognized but fails with a 'MII without any PHY!', and 3 more devices are showing up as unknown: pci0 2.7 is a sis7012 audio driver pci0 5.0 is a conexant 56k modem pci0 7.0 ia a VIA OHCI Compliant IEEE1394 host controller Further more, XF86 as available in freebsd 4.6.2-RELEASE #0 does not recognize my lcd panel, so I can't run a desktop environment. I have not yet posted about the X problem, I wanted to have the sis900 network problem resolved first. FYI, I've installed mandrake 8.2 without a single hickup: all hardware recognized and configured properly in a very neat and smooth installation. Other distros which I've tried with less success are Red Hat 7.3, and Debian 3.0 I do like the iBuddy though! -- Guido Van Hoecke <Guido@VanHoecke.org> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
