:Hello everybody,
:
:I have tried installing Dragonfly on a Dell Inspiron 8000 notebook via a
:Xircom 32-Bit NIC. However, the system failed to recognize the card. I
:guess this is due to the FreeBSD 4.x inheritance, which doesn't support 32
:bit cards, as fas as I know.
:Pleas confirm my guesses and tell me if there are plans to add the
:necessary changes.
:
:Cheers, Felix
Well, Joerg has been bringing in the cardbus infrastructure from
FreeBSD-5 but there is still a considerable amount of work that
needs to be done, so we may not have a working solution for you
for a while. Of course, we also bring in patches from the outside...
whenever someone finds a bug and is able to actually fix it... those
get incorporated a lot faster. But we are working on it.
