I'm having a little difficulty setting up the wi driver for an ISA =
wavelan card.  So far I have:

1. updated to 3.1 stable.
2. uncommented pccard entries, commented out ze and zp devices and added =
device wi0 line and rebuilt kernel.
3. created pccard.conf file with entry for wi0.

Dmesg shows wi0 not found, pcic controller started (Vadem 469) and card =
inserted in slot 0, drivers initialized for ed ep fe wi sio.

Ifconfig does not show wi0 interface.

Pccardd can be started ok manually.  Wicontrol lists parameters =
including mac address.  Ifconfig of wi0 interface works.  IP address =
responds to ping from same host.

But no communications with wireless lan and lots of device timeout =
messages.

Any hints or a guide to how to configure?=20
