I tried openbsd for that reason. the 575BT works VERY fine with it, but there is no java and too few ports, and the security got on my nerves... so I upgraded to -current which currently doesn't work with cardbus because it seems to be broken at the moment (at least the NEWCARD config file says so) and sofar I run GENERIC. seems stable enough for me to wait for the re-enabled NEWCARD martin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
