XFree 4 doesn't ship with a driver for the SuperSavage, though I was able to find one on the net with some searching. The internal wireless is an Intersil card, which is a variation on the Lucent Orinoco card. OpenBSD-current supports the Intersil PRISM-II card. It's taken a few hacks to get it all working. Perhaps FreeBSD is easier, though. -Larry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
