Hi,
just a note - it seems that there is no support for this hw in NetBSD.
Still it's possible to download free (part of a README file pasted
bellow) source code of a driver for FreeBSD. So if someone with the
appropriate skills wants to, it probably could be possible to add
support for NetBSD as well. You can download the code from the following
address:
http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA/bios_rr2220.htm
(http://www.highpoint-tech.com/).
