okay, can you point me to a handbook or man page with exact syntax?
. ..have never customized a bsd kernel, short of these pages I know nothing.

I don't see 'polling' there. I have a linksys card in there, but really

There was a thread a month or to back, where this card was fixed, do you
think that is in HEAD vs stable?
