I remember trying ndis from a USB-stick installation of FreeBSD 9.2-STABLE, but 
it failed.

I could try again, since I already have the setup, with
set hint.rsu.0.disabled="1"  from loader prompt.

UPDATE: I tried, rsu did not show on "ifconfig", but it seems not viable.  Last 
15 lines of var/log/messages are:

I feel like I was justified in this last try, having gone so far already.

I browsed

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NDISwrapper

and saw various reasons why ndis would likely fail.  Maybe it's really not 
workable for Hiro H50191.

Now should I svn revert the src tree and update normally, without patches?

When possible, for the sake of others if not myself, it would be good to have 
more documentation of how to set up with ndis, and what to do when the Windows 
drivers don't include .inf and .sys files.

Regarding two Unknown USB device messages, I believe 0x9271 is on-motherboard 
quasi-USB wireless adapter, and 0x3000 might be on-motherboard Bluetooth (ubt).
