It cannot load binary Linux drivers. But even Linux can't load all
binary Linux drivers, especially between versions. Linus dislikes
binary-only drivers, and with good reason
You can't use linux drivers in BSD, but you might be able to port linux driver
to FreeBSD.

Hi,
I've installed an internal Smartlink HSP56
Micromodem pci modem on the first pci slot of my
H30CF jetway motherboard with(if i'm not mistakem)
only one com1 port and a com2 header which i think
i've installed
an external modem. I've went to their actual
site(smartlink) and found a driver but it says its
only for Linux. I've read that freebsd can run Linux
programs(that's why I've swithched to it).
My question is, in my case, can I also use Linux
drivers so that I can get my internal pci
configuring it unlike before when i've installed
an external modem. I've went to their actual
site(smartlink) and found a driver but it says its
only for Linux. I've read that freebsd can run Linux
programs(that's why I've swithched to it).
My question is, in my case, can I also use Linux
is, in my case, can I also use Linux
drivers so that I can get my internal pci modem
working properly or is there something that i can to
do to make it work properly?
No, compatibility is only at the application level.
