Summary: Looking for NCR WaveLAN device-drivers for FreeBSD and Linux
Keywords: wireless lan FreeBSD Linux WaveLAN
X-Newsreader: NN version 6.5.0 #4 (NOV)

Greetings;

I am in search of device-drivers for NCR WaveLAN wireless interface
cards (both ISA and PCMCIA) for both the Linux and FreeBSD operating
systems.

I have source code for ISA and PCMCIA device drivers targeting NetBSD
and BSDI operating systems, and this should port fairly easily into
FreeBSD (I'm about to start hacking on it, anyway). But, if anyone
else has already written drivers for FreeBSD, I'd like to take
advantage of it.

As far as Linux is concerned, I believe there is a PCMCIA driver
(point enabler only) already ported, since the configuration option is
in the configuration file but commented out. If anyone knows where
this code can be found, I'd greatly appreciate it. ISA drivers for
Linux would be an added bonus.

Please e-mail responses to me at the following address:

	pearce@hook.wdgarl.wes.mot.com

Thanks in advance,

Mike
