Have you asked them about a USB version of it? If they will have a USB
version in the near future, let me know. I am more than willing to write
the driver for it, if a sample device including specs passes through me.
When finished I would send the device on to you.
It seems that they have been th

I've been very impressed with the newer ( last 5 months ) Garmin
handhelds. The older ones only had 8 channel receivers. The newer
ones have 12 channel receivers sensitive enough that the units often
work indoors.

Hi!
I have tried to install 3.1 on two machines but on both of
them I was not able to boot it after installation. The
3.0-snapshot from May-98 worked fine on both of them.
But 3.1 did not boot. First, the MBR boot manager was not able to
boot any partition, nor FreeBSD nor UnixWare. After I repla
Some of you may already know this - I'm wondering about the pain involved in

I'm exploring hardware setups for FreeBSD and I'm curious how SMP is

I had to reboot a few times today, and got bugged by the boot
countdown timer telling me it was going to boot in 1 seconds.
The change to src/sys/boot/common/boot.c is trivial, but I'm always
impressed when a program gets these details right.
