Hello freebsd-mobile I have a problem getting my onboard 802.11 seen by freebsd5.1 (cvsupped and made buildworld yesterday, using the generic kernel). I was wondering if there are any plans afoot to support this device, or if it is already supported, then what I'm doing wrong, or if it will never be supported. Details: FreeBSD laptop.reiteration.net 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #0: Tue Sep 30 22:55:54 BST 2003 root@laptop.reiteration.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 The windows readme file reports the card as follows: #Supporting OS : Windows XP, Windows 2K,Windows ME, Windows 98SE #Version : 4.06(XP),4.04(2K,Me,98) #Supporting Adapter : SWL-2220M/P,SWL-2210M/P,SWL-2200M/P #Supporting Language : English A bit of research on the samsung website gives the following technical spec: wireless LAN 802.11b Type = mini-PCI Chipset = Agere Antenna = integrated 2 antenna googling mini-pci 802.11 freebsd agere doesn't return anything useful unfortunately. Do you need my dmesg? any info or pointers would be a great help (even if it's "no, it will never work") thanks -- John - jfm@reiteration.net - http://www.reiteration.net/~jfm For PGP public key finger jfm@reiteration.net or see webpage
