(Remember that the hardware notes are partially generated from manpages.) Here's the entry for ath(4), as well as the the entry that immediately precedes it: Cards supported by the cnw(4) driver include: * Xircom CreditCard Netwave * NetWave AirSurfer A list of cards that are supported can be found at http://customerproducts.atheros.com/customerproducts. The ath(4) driver supports all Atheros Cardbus or PCI cards, except those that are based on the AR5005VL chipset. It's not clear to me whether it'd be better to reword the above sentences in the manpage to make them more suitable for "dual use", or if it'd be better to hard-code some appropriate text into the hardware notes. (In any case, please keep the Web pointer in the hardware notes if possible.)
