Dear FreeBSD-Mobile & Newbies & Bill Paul,
I'm having problems bulding a wireless ndis kernel module and
was hoping I might get some help with where I'm going wrong. Please be
aware that I did check the list archives at
http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/mmsearch/freebsd-mobile before
posting but got no hits. I also tried google'ing the error message as
well with no hits so please no RTFM replies because I've already
RTFM'd at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-wireless.html
section 25.3.3.6.3 802.11a & 802.11g Clients. Here's the pertinet
information:
uname -a output:

ndiscvt: line 376: : syntax error.
I obtained the Win-XP drivers for the wireless NIC, D-Link DWL-650
V.P1, from http://support.dlink.com/products/view.asp?productid=DWL%2D650%5FrevP
I'm trying to do this on an IBM ThinkPad 380z with 64Mb ram with a 8Gb
hard drive.
The wireless NIC works fine under MS-Win2k.
Thanks,
Dom
