Sascha Wildner’s added experimental support for NICs using Silan Microelectronics’ SC92301 chip.
Matthias Schmidt has added scrolling support to moused(8). This means that when using a mouse in a terminal, holding down the 3rd button and moving the mouse up and down scrolls the terminal. (From FreeBSD)
Matthias Schmidt has created a ‘mobile devices’ (meaning laptops) section on the DragonFly wiki; there’s already a section there for two different IM laptops. Please contribute if you have run DragonFly on other mobile devices, especially if you are one of the people who has mentioned it before.
Hasso Tepper has added “bthcid(8) – Bluetooth Link Key/PIN Code Manager and btpin(1) Bluetooth PIN utility”, along with “rfcomm_sppd(1) – RFCOMM Serial Port Profile daemon”. These all originate from NetBSD, so I’ve linked to the man pages there for further details.  That’s the lowest consonant to vowel ratio I’ve had in a while.
Matthias Drochner managed to get one of those USB-powered missile launchers working on NetBSD; it looks enough like a USB keyboard that this could work on any BSD. (Via Hubert Feyrer)
Gerard van Essen found an appropriately titled page: EeeBSD, talking about running FreeBSD on an Eee PC. The issues appear the same for NetBSD and DragonFly – networking is the only real issue. Anyone familiar with my interest in small computers will realize I am this close to buying one of these little things.
Matthias Schmidt has added a handy tool for converting USB ids from other BSDs into a format for DragonFly.
Peter Avalos has an update for the aac(4) device; give it a whirl if you have this hardware.
HAsso Tepper has committed changes that allow recognition of the EVDO/UMTS card found in in a Thinkpad X61.
Sepherosa Ziehau is planning to remove support for the awi(4), ray(4) and gx(4) devices in the next DragonFly release. These are (I think) all wireless devices; please speak up on kernel@ or users@ if you actually need/use them.
Matthias Schmidt has added support for the em(4) device found on Intel ICH9 chipsets.
Hasso Tepper has described some simple steps for using Bluetooth under DragonFly.
Stephane Russell posted on users@ asking for opinions on using commodity gateways (Linksys devices, etc) vs. DragonFly for a firewall and network gateway device.
Link summation time! Those gateway devices can run open-source operating systems – most famously the Linksys WRT54G. However, they can be problematic, though “Tomato” was recommended, as was OpenWRT. For read-only security, you can also boot from CD, as Dave Hayes does.
Matthew Dillon pointed out a small device that boots an free OS is all you need, which leads to stores selling my personal fascination: teeny computer systems. Michael Neumann listed favorites pcengines.ch and soekris.com, and Thomas Donnelly added Logic Supply.
Sepherosa Ziehau has imported the msk(4) driver, which supports the Marvell Yukon II networking chipset, orginally from FreeBSD.
Dmitry Komissaroff has a new version of his Bluetooth port available for testing.
Hasso Tepper has committed all the recent changes to sound infrastructure in FreeBSD-6 to DragonFly; this improves sound support on a number of different laptops.
Dmitry Komissaroff has created a new version of the Bluetooth stack, with a version ready to test.  Among other changes, it’s now possible to use a cellphone via Bluetooth to establish a PPP connection. There are other caveats.
If you have a laptop with bleeding-edge DragonFly and an ExpressCard slot, please test it out, as Sepherosa Ziehau has made them supportable.
Aggelos Economopoulos has submitted a series of patches to bring pmctools into DragonFly; PMC stands for “Performance Measurement Counters”. Give them a whirl, as positive or negative feedback will get him to continue work.
