wireless on HP compaq 6715s - Broadcom BCM5906m - not supported?

[Anton Shterenlikht]

I've HP Compaq 6715s laptop.
Looking at "pciconf -lv" output, the
wireless (and ethernet) device is:


bge0 at pci0:16:0:0:       class=0x020000 card=0x30c2103c chip=0x171314e4 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Broadcom Corporation'
    device     = 'Broadcom NetLink (TM) Fast Ethernet (BCM5906m)'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

I tried to search on the net, including FBSD hardware release notes,
and it seems this device is not supported.

Can anybody comment on/confirm this please?

Any experience using this chip with NDIS?

many thanks
anton
