HP nc6320 (google RH383ET) - most things work, including wifi and ethernet,
except for the following:


From HP site,

Network
    Integrated Broadcom NetLink Gigabit Ethernet PCI Controller
    (10/100/1000 NIC)

Wireless
    Broadcom 802.11a/b/g; Broadcom 802.11b/g; Bluetooth 2.0


It seems to have the US-trash-com chipset !

Do Atheros, Ralink, Realtek, Intel PRO/Wireless chipset work
with FreeBSD ?


thanks
Saifi.

What is the US-trash-com chipset and what makes it 'trash'? Is it poorly implemented hardware or problems with drivers? Or something else?

This machine uses wpi and bge. Both devices seem to work ok chucking files around a domestic network.
