Hello,

I'm glad to hear that Intel is looking to augment their FreeBSD
support.

Your best bet for finding specific problems like this is to search the
mailing list archives at www.freebsd.org/search/ .  I'd check the
archives for -questions first, and if that doesn't give you any good
results try the -hackers archive.

Let us know if that doesn't help!
