Hi,

I have come across an issue while building the ath_hal driver component
on FreeBSD/alpha, namely the binary component required is non-existent
in the sources precompiled for alpha.

I have seen some information on OpenBSD's page in the alpha section
claiming it supports atheros on the alpha port.

Is any work planned to support this great wifi chip on the alpha arch?

Regards,

//m.

ps. please CC me a reply as i am not subscribed to this list, cheers ;-)
