Hm, I downloaded install CDs for NetBSD-4.0 and OpenBSD-4.3, and they do not
show working wireless interface/no driver attached. How did you try it? Do
you have any reference, alternatively?
Wireless interface is not top priority for me at a moment, but if it were not
too hard, I will try.
My notebook is Wind U100 series... is yours similar or perhaps the same?
