To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: "Anders Leino TE01b" <1te01b_anle@tjelvar.org> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Yes, it is a cardbus card and FreeBSD has not supported it in the past... And yes, I know I'm not supposed to use a snapshot just because my NIC is supported in it... But when I try to do so anyway FreeBSD's installation program is like "not finding" it, which is strange because I found that my card is listed in the file: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/5.0-20020302-PREVIEW/HARDWARE.HTM So why is it not working when it is listed in HARDWARE.HTM? Do I have to install FreeBSD from a CD and then add support for my NIC later on? Please help, or else I will have to use OpenBSD (which is not that bad, but not as nice as FBSD). I have to use FreeBSD because I plan to do some game programming using SDL (www.libsdl.org) once I get it running on my laptop... // Anders Leino (I'm from Sweden :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
