Very interesting discussion. Is there a list of supported and unsupported hardware maintained any place? I have searched and cannot find one, which may be a reflection on me! There is a lot of discussion on this list about the performance of such and such hardware... For people interested in Raspberry PI (that includes me, I own two) the beaglebone black is an interesting device and I did find http://www.tedunangst.com/flak/post/OpenBSD-on-BeagleBone-Black I am especially interested in the discussion about blobs in the kernel. This is a discussion you almost never hear in Linux circles. cheers Worik -- Why is the legal status of chardonnay different to that of cannabis? worik.stan...@gmail.com 021-1680650, (03) 4821804 Aotearoa (New Zealand) I voted for love
