yes... i still wonder whether installing all the linux-X related ports under freebsd would allow us to run those linux drivers (probably not as they , if memory serves me right) need some kernel module to be loaded... there was a mention (in mobile@ or questions@) a while back about someone actually using the linux drivers under freebsd (though not sure how they got them working...i tried them and failed miserably :-D )
