Yeah - I checked with them.  Unfortunately they still don't
support
this card for FreeBSD.  (As of October 2005)

After spending a few years with FreeBSD, you'll learn to
actually check if a piece of hardware is supported
before buying it.

One of the most popular points against FreeBSD is
hardware support. Taking into account the fact
that many local PC/server vendors try to assemble
boxes using bleeding-edge hardware, and most
people blindly buy it, there's no wonder to that.


Cheerz,

I dunno... I gotta disagree.  I've been with FreeBSD for 5
years now
and this is the first time I've ever found it not supporting
some
hardware.

I had eventually come to the conclusion that FreeBSD seems
to support
EVERYTHING under the sun, and that people who thought
otherwise were
just going on outdated info.

Maybe I've just never been bleeding-edge before.
