This is my first time ever emailing something or posting something like this. Sorry if I sound like a noob. I have a linksys WPC55AG wifi card in my laptop. when i boot up with the default kernel it finds cbb0, pccard0, and cardbus0. i found the ath drivers and added the 3 lines from man ath into a CUSTOM kernel file which i cp from GENERIC kernel. i recompiled the kernel using CUSTOM. i then added the ath driver load line to loader.conf in the /boot folder. I still can not get the wireless card to power up. When I plug it in, the green link light flashes then goes off, and I hear my speaker of my pc click. But it never shows in dmesg or in /dev/net. Am I doing something wrong? This is an alienware laptop M7700 with pentium 4 3.4ghz, and everything except my sound card is working fine.
