Context: HP laptop DV6000, centrino duo, FreeBSD 7.0-BETA4
When loading if_wpi I get the following line saying that "bus_dmamem_alloc 
failed to align memory properly"
<SNIP>
wpi0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG> mem 0xd8000000-0xd8000fff irq 16 at 
device 0.0 on pci2
bus_dmamem_alloc failed to align memory properly.
last message repeated 30 times
wpi0: Ethernet address: 00:19:d2:99:e3:cb
wpi0: [ITHREAD]
wpi0: 11a rates: 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps

</SNIP>

Therefore I'm unable to make wpi0 work at all.

Could you please tell me what should I do?

Ciao, Vittorio
