History
2021-08-26: I re-created this page on my self-hosted web server.
2020-03-22: I have a Logitech K400 keyboard with built in touchpad, it has a Logitech Unifying receiver. If I ever need to pair devices with the Unifying receiver, Solaar under Linux might help. Plugging the Unifying receiver into my FreeBSD workstation gives:
root@kg-core2# usbconfig -d ugen0.4 ugen0.4: <Logitech USB Receiver> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON (98mA)
and from /var/log/messages:

powering on the keyboard doesn't change anything in /var/log/messages - but the keyboard and touchpad works :-)
2017-09-12: sometime ago, I bought a "USB Multi-function LAN Adapter" ("for MacBook") on eBay. Today I plugged it into my FreeBSD workstation

ok. The usb ports on the hub appears to work - usb memory sticks are detected when inserted.
2016-01-22: At Clas Ohlson I bought 2 x 38-6255 Seagate Backup Plus 2 TB for NOK 998.- each. I have one already.
2014-12-17: in yesterday's "raid" at Digital Impuls I also got a BestConnection 7.1 channel USB 2.0 sound box (127607) for NOK 100.- I connect it to my Xubuntu laptop:

not perfect.
2014-12-16: I bought a SDM OEM usb 2.0 Multifunction dock (126683) from Digital Impuls for NOK 30.- it has usb 2.0 ports (9 ports), sound (mono mic, stereo headphone, line out), Ethernet (10/100 Mbps). When connected to my xubuntu laptop:

wow, that's a lot.
2013-12-06: from FastTech, I bought a Fast Ethernet 10/100Mbps LAN USB Network Adapter (SKU 1064403) for only USD 3.99. The only text on the white dongle is "JP1081B" and "NO:9700". It claims Linux support. How about FreeBSD?

funnily, so does 'ifconfig -m':
root@kg-core1# ifconfig -m ue0 ue0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 ether 00:e0:4c:53:44:58
I wonder why.
2013-07-29: sometime ago, I bought a Deltaco WS-NWU220G USB-RJ45 Ethernet Gigabit adapter (it seems to be a Winstars product). The packaging claims it even work with Linux. Connected to a few of my FreeBSD machines:

2011-04-20: silly me, the Tape to Digital converter works on FreeBSD 8.1-stable too, I just must remember to kldload the snd_uaudio module first:

Output from /dev/sndstat confirms that there is a usb audio device in the machine:

Now, let's see what audacity thinks.
2011-04-20: Ok, I definitely need to upgrade my main workstation. Connecting the Tape to Digital converter to a machine running FreeBSD 8.2-stable gives this result:

So, there is a sound device after all.
2011-04-20: I bought a Tape to Digital converter (model RC-2765, the label on the device itself says "Cassette to MP3 Converter"), which can transfer your old music tapes on cassette to mp3 files. Amazon has a version, too: Clarity CRC2765 USB Cassette Recorder. When connected to a FreeBSD machine it shows up like this:

Hmm, no drivers there too. Boring. Ok, following this thread: NET-WL-UMD-606N and Linux, I get a driver for the wireless adapter. It sees a couple of networks, but not mine. My wireless network is 11b/g only; perhaps that is a problem?

That's it. Let's try a FreeBSD 8.2-prerelease machine, too:
root@kg-v7# uname -a FreeBSD kg-v7.kg4.no 8.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-PRERELEASE #4: Sun Feb 20 03:18:04 CET 2011 root@kg-v7.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 root@kg-v7# usbconfig -u 0 -a 3 dump_device_desc ugen0.3: <product 0x7840 vendor 0x9710> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON bLength = 0x0012 bDescriptorType = 0x0001 bcdUSB = 0x0200 bDeviceClass = 0x00ff bDeviceSubClass = 0x0000 bDeviceProtocol = 0x00ff bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040 idVendor = 0x9710 idProduct = 0x7840 bcdDevice = 0x0001 iManufacturer = 0x0000 <no string> iProduct = 0x0000 <no string> iSerialNumber = 0x0000 <no string> bNumConfigurations = 0x0001
Ok, no improvements there. Aha, it seems that the port umcs7840 supports it. Install the port, then:
root@kg-v7# kldload umcs7840 root@kg-v7# ls -l /dev/ttyU* crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 112 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.0 crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 113 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.0.init crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 114 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.0.lock crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 118 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.1 crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 119 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.1.init crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 120 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.1.lock crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 124 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.2 crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 125 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.2.init crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 126 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.2.lock crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 130 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.3 crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 131 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.3.init crw------- 1 root wheel 0, 132 Feb 23 00:24 /dev/ttyU0.3.lock
and four new serial ports. Nice! Back to the FreeBSD 8.1-stable machine, install the umcs7840-kmod port, kldload it, and check /var/log/messages:

That's it. fdisk says it has only one partition, which is fine by me:

I'll just run newfs on it. Or rather, sysinstall's fdisk and label / newfs.

2008-05-19: I bought a Plextor PX-608CU external DVD writer. It has a usb interface, and draws power from another usb connector or from an external psu. On a machine running FreeBSD 7.0-stable, I get this in /var/log/messages:

2008-04-27: ok, to set up a bluetooth keyboard, you require hcsecd and bthidd running. Do this: in /etc/rc.conf:
hcsecd_enable="YES" bthidd_enable="YES"
in /etc/bluetooth/hcsecd.conf you need a section for your device, like this:
device { bdaddr 00:1e:52:f9:35:da; name "tingos keyboard"; key nokey; pin "1234"; }
Obviously, you must use your bdaddr, and select your own pin. You need to add the output from bthidcontrol -a 00:1e:52:f9:35:da Query to
/etc/bluetooth/bthidd.conf. Start hcsecd with the startup script: /etc/rc.d/hcsecd start. After that you will want to start
bthidd: /etc/rc.d/bthidd start. If your keyboard isn't powered up already, turn it on now. Wait a couple of seconds, enter then PIN on the keyboard and
press enter. I had to try a couple of times before it worked. You will see messages like these in /var/log/messages when it works:
Apr 27 21:16:19 kg-vm bthidd[1740]: Opening outbound session for 00:1e:52:f9:35:da (new_device=1, reconnect_initiate=1) Apr 27 21:16:20 kg-vm kernel: kbd2 at vkbd7
That wasn't too bad.
2008-04-27: Ok, I will try the bluetooth dongle on FreeBSD 7.0-stable again. Without anything loaded:
Apr 27 19:55:38 kg-vm kernel: ugen0: <vendor 0x0a12 product 0x0001, class 224/1, rev 1.10/11.20, addr 2> on uhub2 root@kg-vm# lsusb Bus /dev/usb2 Device /dev/ugen0: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)
Then I remove the dongle, kldload ng_ubt and reinsert the dongle:
Apr 27 20:02:25 kg-vm root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x0a12 product 0x0001 bus uhub2 Apr 27 20:02:25 kg-vm kernel: ubt0: <vendor 0x0a12 product 0x0001, class 224/1, rev 1.10/11.20, addr 2> on uhub2 Apr 27 20:02:25 kg-vm kernel: ubt0: Interface 0 endpoints: interrupt=0x81, bulk-in=0x82, bulk-out=0x2 Apr 27 20:02:25 kg-vm kernel: ubt0: Interface 1 (alt.config 5) endpoints: isoc-in=0x83, isoc-out=0x3; wMaxPacketSize=49; nframes=6, buffer size=294 Apr 27 20:02:25 kg-vm kernel: WARNING: attempt to net_add_domain(bluetooth) after domainfinalize() Apr 27 20:02:25 kg-vm kernel: WARNING: attempt to net_add_domain(netgraph) after domainfinalize()
Try some commands:
root@kg-vm# ngctl status ubt0: Status for "ubt0:": Hook: hook Flags: 0x30 Debug: 3 CMD queue: [have:0,max:12] ACL queue: [have:0,max:12] SCO queue: [have:0,max:12] root@kg-vm# ngctl status ubt0hci: Status for "ubt0hci:": bdaddr 0:10:60:a6:c3:b8 Hooks drv acl raw State 0x3 Queue cmd:0 Buffer cmd:1,acl:8,8,192,sco:8,8,64
Looks ok. Now try n inquiry:
root@kg-vm# hccontrol -n ubt0hci inquiry Inquiry result, num_responses=1 Inquiry result #0 BD_ADDR: 00:14:a4:d6:04:ad Page Scan Rep.

That also works. Now, see if we can get any names:
root@kg-vm# hccontrol -n ubt0hci remote_name_request 00:14:a4:d6:04:ad 0 0 0 BD_ADDR: 00:14:a4:d6:04:ad Name: kg-home-0 root@kg-vm# hccontrol -n ubt0hci remote_name_request 00:13:70:df:fe:f3 0 0 0 Status: Page timeout [0x4] root@kg-vm# hccontrol -n ubt0hci remote_name_request 00:0d:93:1b:89:75 0 0 0 BD_ADDR: 00:0d:93:1b:89:75 Name: Torfinn Ingolfsen’s Mac mini root@kg-vm# hccontrol -n ubt0hci remote_name_request 00:13:70:df:fe:f3 0 0 0 BD_ADDR: 00:13:70:df:fe:f3 Name: Traktor
Ok, so everything works? And here is my Apple Wireless Keyboard:
root@kg-vm# hccontrol -n ubt0hci remote_name_request 00:1e:52:f9:35:da 0 0 0 BD_ADDR: 00:1e:52:f9:35:da Name: tingo’s keyboard
2008-04-27: I added a Bluetooth dongle (usb) to a machine running FreeBSD 7.0-stable. Without loading any specific modules, it looks like this in /var/log/messages:
Apr 27 18:42:25 kg-vm root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x0a12 product 0x0001 bus uhub2 Apr 27 18:42:25 kg-vm kernel: ugen0: <vendor 0x0a12 product 0x0001, class 224/1, rev 1.10/11.20, addr 2> on uhub2
With the ng_ubt module loaded ('kldload ng_ubt') I get this in /var/log/messages:

I don't know what the warning messages are about - not yet anyway. But something is not working - there is no /dev/ubt0, even if ngct list gives this:
root@kg-vm# ngctl list There are 7 total nodes: Name: btsock_l2c_raw Type: btsock_l2c_raw ID: 00000003 Num hooks: 1 Name: ngctl74727 Type: socket ID: 00000014 Num hooks: 0 Name: ubt0hci Type: hci ID: 00000006 Num hooks: 3 Name: btsock_hci_raw Type: btsock_hci_raw ID: 00000002 Num hooks: 1 Name: ubt0l2cap Type: l2cap ID: 0000000a Num hooks: 3 Name: btsock_l2c Type: btsock_l2c ID: 00000004 Num hooks: 1 Name: ubt0 Type: ubt ID: 00000001 Num hooks: 1
and /etc/rc.d/bluetooth start doesn't work either:

But still no /dev/ubt0, and /etc/rc.d/bluetooth start still doesn't work. Various debugging commands:

2008-03-30: I connected a ZippyRF-620 keyboard / mouse combo to a machine running FreeBSD 7.0-stable From /var/log/messages:

The silver buttons on the top row didn't work, and didn't give any codes when using xev.
2008-03-27: I bought a HDD Stage Rack (sata disks, usb interface only), model SI-7908US. This neat little gadget requires the use of an external power supply (included). I attached it to a machine running FreeBSD 7.0-stable. When I powered it up without a disk in, nothing happened. Quite nice. Here is the dmesg output with a 2.5 inch disk (model 5K120, 60GB) in the dock:

2008-03-23: I connected a Dymo LabelManager PC label printer to a machine running FreeBSD 7.0-stable. As expected, it didn't work. Here is the output from /var/log/messages:

It looks like the device (the printer) repeatedly disconnects / reconnects. Not good. It doesn't seem like this printer is supported under Linux either

2008-02-26: I also tested the Hawking HWC54G card again. It has the same problem as the Gigabyte card; after a while, traffic stops, ssh connections to the machine dies, and so on. I also tested this card in the other PCCard slot - that did not solve the problem. I must find out how to debug the ral(4) driver. netstat -ni doesn't show any errors (Ierrs / Oerrs) when the problem shows itself. Testing done with FreeBSD 6.3.
2008-02-23: The Gigabyte airCruiser G (GN-WMKG) adapter or the ral(4) driver has a problem. After a while, traffic stops. For example, I can ssh to the laptop with the ral(4) card, and leave this shell open. A few hours later, or the next day, the ssh session does not respond, and closes connection after a while. If I try to ping the laptop, it doesn't respond. If I go over to the laptop, everything looks fine, I can connect to the world. No error messages, not even with ifconfig ral0 debug. I don't know what to do next.
2008-02-16: I bought a Gigabyte AirCruiser G PCCard NIC. Model number: GN-WMKG. Works with the ral(4) driver in FreeBSD 6.3. From dmesg:
