pinnaclesystem page did not say what chipset it uses. Do you happend to know what chipset this cards has? I also found a card that uses Connexant CX878A Logic chip, which was supported in FreeBSD 4.1x, but FreeBSD 5.3 seems not mention this chipset anymore. http://www.censuspc.com/cart/product.php?productid=1612&cat=0&page=1 I wonder if this capture (with Connexant CX878A Logic chipset) is still supported under FreeBSD 5.3/5.4? Would anyone please confirm this?
