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?
