Hi,

First thanks you for you help

In fact I make the wifi run by using wpi driver.

But if I can help to make more hardware working on FreeBSD  I would happy to
do that so let's go:

	Hardware :

		Dell laptop Precision M6300

	Running wihtout problem:

		touchpad
		X11 (using nv drivers but not the «official» because I'm
		running amd64 version).

	running but with some problem :

		wifi card : chipset 3945
		drivers : wpi (compiling in kernel)
		problem : sometime the wifi go down (the AP is at < 1m) and
		when I try to make that up again he don't work. If I try
		the keyboard touch (Fn+F2) that's can crash (reboot) the
		computer

	Find drivers but not running :

		sound. I got 
		[root@ ~]# dmesg|grep pcm
		pcm0: <Intel 82801H High Definition Audio Controller> mem 0xf6ffc000-0xf6ffffff irq 21 at device 27.0 on pci0
		pcm0: [ITHREAD]
		pcm0: <HDA Codec: Sigmatel STAC9205>
		pcm0: <HDA Driver Revision: 20080420_0052>
		[root@ ~]# 

	but I don't have dsp device in my /dev so no sound....

	No driver (and of course not working)

		NetXtreme BCM5756ME Gigabit Ethernet PCIe

	USB ports working.

	I've not try Firewire, pccard, MIC. 

I'm running

	FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE

make after csup (with tag=RELENG_7) and make buildworld;kernel.

I can make «any» test you want. Just ask me.


Bests regards.
