Robert,
Hmm - The Mac source (I assume your talking Mac OS X) would probably be the best to start with. It might be a very easy port to whatever version of FreeBSD was used for the version of Mac OS X you wrote the driver for.
Mac OS X is not based on FreeBSD. It has a BSD user layer and compatibility layer and they DO use the FreeBSD userland for their own, but the driver level is MUCH different.

FreeBSD 3.X was used as the base for the original merge
of Next code. I don't know how much divergence there's been since then.
If your lucky with little effort a FreeBSD 3.5 or early 4.x driver might
be had. With a bit more effort that could be ported to the current
FreeBSD source tree.
Are you sure that the EVDO card doesen't use an off-the-shelf ethernet or wireless controller chip already?
Is there a URL for the Mac driver source code?
Ted

Welll... Yes... The EVDO system technically DOES work on FREEBSD... BUT.. You have to personally modify the Old Open Source Mac driver to do it... OR.. Just mod the Linux driver...
Tell you what... Since I don't have a copy... If anyone does this... And gets me a working driver ... I will get you a FREE EVDO card... And 3 free months of service... Lemme know..
