[apologies if I should send this to -hardware instead, most recent discussion of it I could find in the archives was on -stable though] My local source of reasonably priced yet reasonable quality PC gear[1] only seems to have the PRO/100 S available these days, not the older 100+ or 100B fxp cards. I don't actually care if the crypto stuff is supported right now; sure, it would be nice to have but AFAIK the NDA requirements get in the way. The question is whether 4.2-STABLE will support these as normal fxp cards. Last time the topic came up it quickly digressed into a discussion of UART chip numbering. If they won't work, recommendations for reasonably priced sources of fxp cards that will would be appreciated. These are going into old P5-133s, so I'd prefer not to spend *too* much more than the machines themselves are worth! :-) [They currently have old 10Mb/s 3c509 ISA cards.] [1] The other places have mostly RealTek based cards-by-the-barrel for $20. -- Christopher Davis * <ckd-sig@ckdhr.com> * <URL:http://www.ckdhr.com/ckd/>; Put location information in your DNS! <URL:http://www.ckdhr.com/dns-loc/>; To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
