sierra wireless compass 597 aircard

[Steve Clark]

Hello List,

I am trying to get the above usb device to work on 6.x. It is a bit 
unusual in the
fact that when it is first inserted it comes up in installer mode 
looking like a fake cd
drive with the software on it for windoze. It has to have a control 
message sent to it
to put it in modem mode.

There is a linux driver for it at
http://fxr.watson.org/fxr/source/drivers/usb/serial/sierra.c?v=linux-2.6

I was wondering if anyone is working/looking at integrating this 
device into FreeBSD.

Thanks,
Steve
