Both packages do not support that Compaq mainboard; however I expected that (why do they always have do things in their own special way...). But it's good to know the next time I use a "better" mainboard with FreeBSD. >You might ask compaq if the source is available. You can also try >running the drivers under Linux compatability mode. Unfortunately the Compaq drivers are loaded as kernel modules in Linux. I guess they can't be loaded in FreeBSD then since they're no user applications - or is there a way to do it? They consist of three modules (cpqeisaid.o, cpqhealth.o and cpqrom.o) which are loaded by a small shell script using insmod/modprobe. Anyway, I'll go looking for an address at Compaq to ask for the source. Who knows, maybe they'll help... ;) Thanks & greets, Manuel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
