Hi Andreas,

i have done some research during work :-) ... There'se a driver for NetBSD -> http://www.manualpages.de/NetBSD/NetBSD-5.1/man4/adt7467.4.html ... I've nerver done kernel development for FreeBSD .. but "how hart could it be?" ... So i will take a look on it ... 

If you have something to test .. let me know :-) 

Cheers
  Thorsten
