OK... sleep/suspend possibilities are not as important as the others
for me, but it would be good.

I expect that. No problem because all my "outworld" connections are
through ethernet (and wireless in a near future).

That's a real problem for me! However, I'll try to install NetBSD
so I can test it, now I know almost devices are supported. Is it really
difficult to write a driver for NetBSD, for a person who has a good C
level and computer science knowledges? I never tried to make one, of
course! :-)
I suppose a lot of documentation about NetBSD kernel structure
and the device itself must be readed.

Thaks for your help,
