Hi all,

does anybody have a clue why Athreos-based Proxim Orinoco 11a/b/g
cards are not supported in 7.0?

pciconf -lv:

ath0@pci0:22:0:0:       class=0x020000 card=0xaa1014b7 chip=0x0013168c
rev=0x01
hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
    device     = 'AR5212, AR5213 802.11a/b/g Wireless Adapter'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

dmesg:

cardbus0: Expecting link target, got 0x0
ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xbfeb0000-0xbfebffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on
cardbus0
ath0: [ITHREAD]
ath0: unable to attach hardware; HAL status 13
device_attach: ath0 attach returned 6

HAL status 13 says unsupported HW. Has anybody worked on this?
Is it matter of just some missing ID or is there a more fundamental
problem?

Thanks,
Petr
