Hello Christoph,
The patch isn't quite correct -- you must have the firmware
configuration files (the t4fw_cfg*.txt files in firmware/ ) in order for
the driver to attach successfully to the card. The correct thing to do
for WITHOUT_SOURCELESS would be to still build the t4fw_cfg KLD but
leave the firmware binary out of it.
