Hi Gilbert, Thanks for the custom version. I've integrated the changes into the driver I'm working on. For those wanting to test out the driver which is now fully up to date with all change from NetBSD & OpenBSD - and has a few minor improvements over them, grab it from: http://www.clearchain.com/~benjsc/download/ File is: 20070125-wpi-freebsd.tar.gz Full instructions on how to build / install the driver are in the README in the tar file. This should work both under -current and 6.2-Stable now. Info about the driver and what's working/broken can be found at: http://www.clearchain.com/wiki/wpi Cheers, Benjamin
