network adapters. These are all PCMCIA devices (the ISA version is a PCMCIA to ISA bridge with a PCMCIA card plugged into it). Also add a wicontrol utility to read and write some of the card's parameters. Note: I do not have access to a WavePOINT access point, so I have only been able to test this driver in ad-hoc (point to point) mode. The wicontrol utility allows programming the desired service set name (SSID) and enabling BSS mode, but I can't tell for sure if it works (I know the card switches modes, but I can't verify that it joins a service set correctly). This driver was written using information gleaned from the Lucent HCF Light library, which is an API library designed to simplify driver development for devices based on the Lucent Hermes chip. Unfortunately, the HCF Light is missing certain features (like 802.11 frame encapsulation!) which are available only in the proprietary complete HCF code, which is not available to the public. This driver uses none of the HCF Light code: it's very ugly and contaminated by the GPL. IP and ARP packets are encapsulated as 802.11 frames, everything else is encapsulated as 802.3. (It would be easier to just get the Hermes programming manual, but that's not publically available either. For those who are wondering, the Linux WaveLAN/IEEE driver uses the proprietary HCF code, which is provided in object code form only. So much for supporting open source sofware.) Multicast filter support is implemented, however it appears that the filter doesn't work: programming in one IP mutlicast group enables them all.
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $Id: README,v 1.13 1998/09/13 09:38:34 markm Exp $ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel and the contents of /etc. Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it wouldn't even run).
