He likes FreeBSD with the KDE suite and replaced his desktop out of his own pocket. The box is a MSI 8-T with a 2800+ Athlon. I needed to install ndis for a D-Link AG-350, so I had 7.0 on the box. The box would hang on boot at dhclient, then return 0.0.0.0. for the router addy. (the IP and DNS were correct). Killing and restarting dhclient would finally get the proper gateway. I tried the box at home and it worked, but would hang about 30 seconds on boot at dhclient. After going back to isc-dhcp, I just reinstalled 5-STABLE (stock) and all the problems went away. I'm not sure if the problem was dhclient or ndis related, but I don't have a supported card, or easy access to the machine to troubleshoot any further. BTW, the ndis driver works very well with that card running 5.4. I have the same card at home running -CURRENT on an old HP, and have had no dhclient problems.
