Looks like WLAN is Atheros 5212 which is ath(4) under OpenBSD. See here http://forums.bsdnexus.com/viewtopic.php?pid=16360#p16360 About LAN. I think it is Attansic/Atheros L2. It is unsupported as of 4.2 and -current. There are linux drivers: Attansic L1 Gigabit (also can be found on ASUS P5K mainboards) http://atl1.sourceforge.net/ Attansic L2 10/100 (also can be found on ASUS F5R laptops) http://lwn.net/Articles/218588/ Btw, Attansic drivers (according to source code and module naming) are somehow based on (derived from) Intel drivers. Ask developers. Maybe these drivers are easy to port if you'll donate couple of Eee-PCs. They are so cheap :) - Alexey.
