I just installed 5.3-BETA5 on an IBM T41 with an Atheros wireless card. Boot message shows 11a and 11g rates, but no 11b: Sep 23 11:58:14 distopia kernel: ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xc0210000-0xc021ffff irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci2 Sep 23 11:58:14 distopia kernel: ath0: mac 5.6 phy 4.1 5ghz radio 1.7 2ghz radio 2.3 Sep 23 11:58:14 distopia kernel: ath0: Ethernet address: 00:05:4e:48:d2:b7 Sep 23 11:58:14 distopia kernel: ath0: 11a rates: 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps Sep 23 11:58:14 distopia kernel: ath0: 11g rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps "ifconfig -m" shows autoselect, 11a and 11g, but no 11b. Is there some config parameter I can fix? Should I wait for 5.3-RELEASE? Should I grab -CURRENT instead? Should I apply Sam Leffler's patch? -Guy Middleton
