Stefan, I've gotten it to work on 6.2, but you need to get the patched version (specifically made for 6.2) from this location: http://www.bsdmon.com/download/20070121-wpi-freebsd.tar.gz You will also need to install the wpi-firmware port (not in the ports tree yet) from a later official release. I'm sorry to say I don't remember the link for the tar archive that included the port. Also note that it's still a very touchy driver, and might need to be unloaded/reloaded to get up and running (at least, that seems to fix it on my T60). In addition WPA/WPA2 do not work with it (don't know about WEP as I've never tried).
