Let me know if I can help too. > > Thanks to the Foundation for funding this! Time to go contribute > again. Ditto that. When my hardware is supported, it is my experience that FreeBSD makes the best workstation of any OS I've used. More hardware support for workstation-type use, then, is a good thing. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] pgp7AVdKvJELg.pgp Description: PGP signature

I have 8-STABLE on an Intel i3 M 350 with integrated HD graphics that I'll gladly move to 9-CURRENT if I can help this effort in any way. Thanks to the Foundation for funding this!
