to compile I had to link the extracted wpi-freebsd/wpi directory to /usr/src/sys/dev/wpi then I have to load the modules in the following order kldload firmware.ko (well mines in kernel but if yours isnt) kldload wpi_ucode.ko kldload if_wpi.ko And occasionally I loose the interface and need to kldunload wpi_ucode kldunload if_wpi kldload wpi_ucode It works well enough for me but I know other people havent got it working. > Why isn't anyone working on updating it? I wish I knew, Damien stopped developing for FreeBSD cause of disagreements with other developers (he says something about it in a kerneltrap interview if i remember rightly. Luca Morettoni one of the Freesbie developers said he'd have a look at it last time i sent a link to it to one of the freebsd lists, but I havent heard more since then. Sadly I'm not a coder and wouldnt know where to start with it myself.
