In 2.2.6? (I'd rather not go to bleeding edge...) The APM stuff in FreeBSD is *better* than in PAO, IMHO. It has been that way for a long time. And, recently (in between 2.2.5 and 2.2.6) the APM/PCCARD integration became usable in FreeBSD. However, I just fixed a couple minor bugs this morming and committed the code to -current. I'll merge it into -stable in a few days if no one notes any bugs. > Anyway, I'll be glad to do the driver work, if it isn't already being > done. I've already gotten the the linux driver guy to put a bsd > copyright on his code, and he offered to help me with the driver. Feel free. If you need any help, I'm available to answer questions anytime. Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
