The 2940U is supported in 2.1.0. You shouldn't have any problems installing FreeBSD on such a machine! However, the driver supplied with 2.1.0-RELEASE (the one on the CD) is not very stable and does have a couple of known bugs. I suggest you install FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE and then immediately upgrade the system (through SUP or CTM, see the manual) to 2.1-STABLE. This will give you better performance and a very stable system. The upgrade is quite trivial! Best of luck! -- Daniel Eriksson, daniel@icon.pp.se
