OpenBSD recommendations on HW
Hi, I'm considering buying a wireless ethernet adapter for an OpenBSD box. If course I have checked which cards are supported by OpenBSD. But I think it would be nice if the OpenBSD developers would setup a page telling which hardware the developers recommends in terms of that the manufactures have released documentation for the hardware. I personnaly would prefer hardware from vendors who release documentation for their hardware. I have no idea if this takes too much work, or if anyone even likes the idea. But it would also shed some light on which manufactures are releasing hardware documentation for their products, and who isn't. Lasse Bach
Wireless NIC for soekris 4801
Hi all, I wrote a message about OpenBSD hardware recommendations some time ago. As I said I was going to buy a wireless NIC for an OpenBSD box. Well, the box is a soekris 4801 which is going to act as an wireless router. Does anyone have any HW recommendations on that and should it be PCI or MiniPCI? Thanks in advance Lasse Bach
Linksys support... hmm
Hi folks, I have been writing Linksys because i need to know if the v5 of their WMP54G wireless NIC can be used with the ral driver. Here's an abstract of the mail: Me asking: "I also need to know if v5 of the WMP54G uses a Ralink Technology RT25x0 chip?" Linksys answering: "I apologize but we are not allowed to disclose any information regarding the chipsets of any of our devices. Besides, we do not have any access with those information. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience." Wtf is that? How can that be a secret? Maybe someone on the mailing list can provide me with an answer to: 1. Can v5 af the card be used with the ral driver? 2. Why are such information not available to their customers? Thanks, Lasse Bach
Harddrive in soekris
Hi folks,
I'm installing 3.9 on my soekris 4801.
I'm installing on new IBM travelstar harddrive.
I't makes som strange errors? Can anyone enlighten me?
Is it just a bad harddrive?
I have attached a dmesg and the output which occured during installation.
Thanks in advance

Re: OT: large, wireframe Puffy stickers
Hi Steve. Check out: https://kd85.com/notforsale.html - Lasse Bach Steve B wrote: While browsing through some pictures of one of the OpenBSD events (can't find the link again right this moment) there were a couple of attendees who had large wireframe Puffy stickers on the lid of their laptops. There was also a very large one on the top of a 1U chassis. These were larger, much larger, than what comes with an OpenBSD CD. Google could not tell me where to locate one so I am turning here to ask for a resource. Steve
Intel gigabit 82541PI
Hi. I'm looking for some gigabit netcards. And I was checking up on if the Intel 82541PI is supported by OpenBSD. Looking through the supported hardware for i386 page I found that "i82541" is supported in the gigabit section. Looking in the em(4) manpage I found that a series of 82541's is supported. But the PI is not listed. Anyone knows if this card is supported or does anyone recommend another card? Thanks, Lasse Bach
Re: Intel gigabit 82541PI
Hi Stuart.
I received the NIC today.
The chip is found and seems to be working well, caught with the 82541GI
driver as you said.
I'm running 3.9 release.
The chip is a 82541PI as my supplier stated.
I don't know if the man page should be updated, or if anything else is
needed.
I'll be available if you need any further information.
A dmesg is attached.
Thanks for your help.
