I have a PC with a ISA and >PCI bus (Compaq Deskpro) Yes. The NetBSD and OpenBSD ATM stuff should also work under FreeBSD. At least I had ported it to FreeBSD a few months ago and submitted it for inclusion in FreeBSD (but no one ever got back around to doing it so I guess there is no interest in it from the FreeBSD front, oh well). Currently we have a driver for the Efficient Networks PCI ATM card. It also works for the SBus Sparc version (but only on the sun4c since I didn't address the issues with the IOMMU). There is a Fore driver in the works also, and there is a DEC driver that someone ported, but I don't remember the details off the top of my head. For source code, check ftp://dworkin.wustl.edu/dist/bsd and get bsdatm1.2.tar.gz and midway.c.1.62.gz. cheers, chuck
