I'd like to buy a couple of these and turn them into "tiny FreeBSD workstations". unfortunately, they use an ethernet controller that is not supported. It is the Davicom DM9102 (http://www.davicom8.com/lan/dm9102.htm). Fortunately it looks like this company is pretty open-source friendly, there is a datasheet that you can get right off the Web site, and there is even *source* for a Linux driver (also available on the web site). It would be great if this chip were supported under FreeBSD. Unfortunately, I lack the necessary mojo to pull this off. Any takers?
