Hello everyone. I`ve bought a wifi pc-card type II, the exact model is: Linksys WPC11 ver.4. The card in question, works with PRISM chipset, and so SHOULD works with wi(4) driver. I`ve compiled it in my kernel but at the boot, FreeBSD 6.1 and now, FreeBSD 6.2 stable doesn`t see the card. wi0 doesn`t exist. The error reported in /var/log/messages is : > Gen 11 11:50:50 thinkbsd kernel: cbb alloc res fail > Gen 11 11:50:50 thinkbsd kernel: cardbus0: Can't get memory for IO ports > Gen 11 11:50:50 thinkbsd kernel: cardbus0: <network, ethernet> at device > 0.0 (no driver attached) I've read the man pages of wi(4) driver and it reports : > Linksys Instant Wireless WPC11 Prism-II PCMCIA > Linksys Instant Wireless WPC11 2.5 Prism-2.5 PCMCIA > Linksys Instant Wireless WPC11 3.0 Prism-3 PCMCIA > There isn't the version 4.0 of my WPC11 card. So, the problem is this ? The kernel is default GENERIC. I haven't got the skills to write a modifications for wi(4) driver :-( Can i do something ?
