Hello,

I got myself an 3Com wireless card based on the Atheros 5212 chip.
After inserting it in the first pcmcia slot the kernel tells me this:

cbb0: CardBus card activation failed

But after some fiddling around I stuck the card in the second pcmcia
slot, I was rewarded with the following:

ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xd6010000-0xd601ffff irq 11 at device 0.0 on
cardbus1
ath0: Ethernet address: 00:0d:54:a7:d2:44
ath0: mac 5.6 phy 4.1 radio 3.6

Now this is annoying because my hand is hardwired to put my wireless
card in the first pcmcia slot :). I'm willing to supply more information
and test patches.

Koop
