NOTICE ====== You need to have the ubtbcmfw(8) and ng_ubt(8) kernel modules in our kernel. This can be accomplished by adding the following lines to /boot/loader.conf: ubtbcmfw_load=yes ng_ubt_load=yes Furthermore you need to ensure that the bcmfw(1) utility downloads the firmware into the dongle on insertion. This can be done by adding the followign lines to /etc/devd.conf (devd(8) should run by default): # Requires the port BCM2033 to be installed # and the ubtbcmfw(8) and ng_ubt(8) kernel modules # to be loaded prior to insertion. # attach 100 { match "vendor" "0x0a5c"; match "product" "0x2033"; action "if test -d /usr/local/lib/firmware; then bcmfw -n $device-name -m /usr/local/lib/firmware/BCM2033-MD.hex -f /usr/local/lib/firmware/BCM2033-FW.bin; fi"; } Or alternatively load these files manually with: cd /usr/local/lib/firmware bcmfw -n ubtbcmfw0 -m BCM2033-MD.hex -f BCM2033-FW.bin you should then see the following lines in your dmesg(8): ubtbcmfw0: on uhub0 ubtbcmfw0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 7) disconnected ubtbcmfw0: detached ubt0: on uhub0 ubt0: Interface 0 endpoints: interrupt=0x81, bulk-in=0x82, bulk-out=0x2 ubt0: Interface 1 (alt.config 4) endpoints: isoc-in=0x83, isoc-out=0x3; wMaxPacketSize=64; nframes=5, buffer size=320
