I have tested it, it still hangs on my laptop but guess it wil get 
better in a few weeks.
I don't know how much work it is to covert the driver to freebsd each 
time  though.
I can't imagine it is that work, I've seen the source code and it 
doesn't seem that much work.
I can be wrong though, so anybody informed about the conversion of this 
driver, or any of the
other blob-free drivers of OpenBSD ?

Thanks
Roel
