It doesn't work too good on FreeBSD though, a lot of fake network get reported. The developers say, the FreeBSD wireless drivers are bad. Can't comment on that though. It works great on OpenBSD nontheless. - Christian --=20 http://www.unixpages.org chris@unixpages.org GPG Pub-Key : www.unixpages.org/cbrueffer.asc GPG Fingerprint: A5C8 2099 19FF AACA F41B B29B 6C76 178C A0ED 982D GPG Key ID : 0xA0ED982D --aT9PWwzfKXlsBJM1 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9/bSebHYXjKDtmC0RAu2SAJ9UIg0UC85g5iLDfv7sQIzFgMWOXQCfTPd9 7Jx752bgDr0zpkeFmi7UJwI= =NOTz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --aT9PWwzfKXlsBJM1-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
