Here is my uname output (Yes that is the buidl/cvsup date)
FreeBSD mental 4.3-STABLE FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE #5: Thu Jul 26 00:06:45 PDT
2001 root@mental.oneinsane.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MENTAL i386
and here is the entry from my pccard.conf
# SMC SMC2632W 802.11b
card "SMC""SMC2632W"
config auto "wi" ? 0x10000
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
Here is the information I get from the messages file when the card is
inserted:
Aug 5 20:56:54 mental pccardd[106]: Card "SMC"("SMC2632W") [Version
01.02] [] matched "SMC" ("SMC2632W") [(null)] [(null)]
Aug 5 20:56:59 mental /kernel: wi0: <WaveLAN/IEEE 802.11> at port 0x240-0x27f irq 3 slot 0 on pccard0
Aug 5 20:57:00 mental /kernel: wi0: Ethernet address: 00:04:e2:08:24:7e
Aug 5 20:56:59 mental pccardd[106]: wi0: SMC (SMC2632W) inserted.
And yes the card is based on the prsim II chipset.
TIA
