No problems. What I committed to current is the preferred way of
defining these things. I was confused over your email (it has been
one of those days).
Basically, you add it to sys/dev/pccard/pccarddevs, run make -f
Makefile.pccarddevs in that directory, then add the line you talked
about in your other email to if_wi_pccard.c. The first part of this
is desirable reguardless of if if_wi supports this card or not. There
was some other mail suggesting it was a 'flash-less' card needing
firmware downloaded to it before it would work.
