Robert, Hmm - The Mac source (I assume your talking Mac OS X) would probably be the best to start with. It might be a very easy port to whatever version of FreeBSD was used for the version of Mac OS X you wrote the driver for. FreeBSD 3.X was used as the base for the original merge of Next code. I don't know how much divergence there's been since then. If your lucky with little effort a FreeBSD 3.5 or early 4.x driver might be had. With a bit more effort that could be ported to the current FreeBSD source tree. Are you sure that the EVDO card doesen't use an off-the-shelf ethernet or wireless controller chip already? Is there a URL for the Mac driver source code?
