Cool - between those and gillhaa's part no's, I'm going to start looking
for a few cards to play with.  My thanks to both of you guys.

I'd love to develop them, however, I'd need to sit down with someone for a
day to figure things out.  And I just don't have time now-a-days... things
are always happening RSN.  I'd love to see PCI tr cards working,
though.  Maybe there's enough working in the FreeBSD port to just suck it
across, apply random #ifdef __NetBSD__ type of ideas, and compile.  Who
knows...  I'll give it a try in my Copious Spare Time (tm).

Thanks again,
