I know you do.  If you provide me with the board and documentation, I'll
add it to the ICS board driver I am currently writing.  The driver will be
offered for integration into FreeBSD public, free, source tree today, or
tomorrow.  The driver is written to be hardware independant, so different
boards, from different vendors can be acomodated within the same driver
interface.
