>Description:
The wireless on my HP G7 Laptop is currently not supported by FreeBSD, but there is an OpenBSD driver for it.  The Belkin dongle I have to use (zyd) is a pain, and I'd like to be able to use the built in wireless.
>How-To-Repeat:
Hardware is not supported.  pciconf -l -v extract:

none1@pci0:1:0:0:       class=0x028000 card=0x1629103c chip=0x817610ec rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.'
    device     = 'RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter'
    class      = network
>Fix:
Need a driver.

 It looks like, looking at the OpenBSD source, that the code for the 
 8188CE is mostly in if_urtwn.c.  It looks to be effectively recognition 
 of the chipset is what is needed, the urtw driver for the 8187 chips 
 appears to have the guts of what is needed.

 It would be nice to see the driver for Realtek 8188CE ported to FreeBSD,
 actually is the only thing I need to start using FreeBSD as my main
 environment for development!
