Hi All! Browsing trough the mailing-list archive i've found a thread about a problem really similar to mine ( actually it was the same). But, as often happen, that thread didn't have any follow-up. This is part of the thread: Alfred Perlstein <bright@mu.org> wrote: >* Chad David <davidc@acns.ab.ca> [011227 21:39] wrote: >> On Thu, Dec 27, 2001 at 11:31:43AM -0800, Brooks Davis wrote: >> > On Thu, Dec 27, 2001 at 12:10:32PM -0700, Chad David wrote: >> > >> > What you'll want to do is edit src/sys/dev/wi/if_wi.c, add an appropriate >> > entry to the definition of pci_ids for your card, and recompile your >> > kernel.

Where is the vendor's website? >Can you ask them for more info? I'm wondering if, by now, someone resolved this issue and how. The thing really strange about all this ,is that the card is among those declared as supported by 'wi' driver. I tried troubleshooting the problem on my own ,but i miss the very basilar knowledge about the PCI addressing... so if you cannot help me with problem i would appreciate any hints/links about PCI programming..
