I recently purchased a HP Pavilion dv815nr Laptop (AMD Turion64) that
has a  wireless adapter. When I boot FreeBSD/AMD64 6.1-Beta 4, it
doesn't assign a driver to the wireless adapter.

Is there a FreeBSD driver for this wireless adapter, or will I have to
use the NDIS driver to interface with the MS Windows XP driver.

Broadcom 54g™ 802.11b/g WLAN with 125HSM / SpeedBooster support
PCI Slot 3 (PCI bus 6 device 2 function 0)

Driver Provider:	Broadcom Corporation
Driver Date:	7/21/2005
Driver Version:	3.140.16.0
c:\windows\system32\drivers\bcmWL5.sys

none2@pci6:2:0:	class=0x028000 card=0x1355103c chip=0x431814e4 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Broadcom Corporation'
    class    = network

FreeBSD's pciconf output shows 4 other devices without drivers:

none0 - Conexant AC97 Soft Data/Fax Modem with SmartCP
none1 - ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200 Series
none3 - Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia
none4 - ?

none0@pci0:20:6:	class=0x070300 card=0x309b103c chip=0x43781002
rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'ATI Technologies Inc'
    class    = simple comms
    subclass = generic modem
none1@pci1:5:0:	class=0x030000 card=0x309b103c chip=0x59551002 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'ATI Technologies Inc'
    device   = 'Mobility Radeon XPRESS 200'
    class    = display
    subclass = VGA
;
none3@pci6:4:3:	class=0x018000 card=0x309b103c chip=0x8033104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Texas Instruments (TI)'
    device   = 'PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller'
    class    = mass storage
none4@pci6:4:4:	class=0x080500 card=0x309b103c chip=0x8034104c rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Texas Instruments (TI)'
    class    = base peripheral

Are there any drivers for these?

Thanks

Scot
