John,
I've got the card in front of me now (wasn't in a machine at the
moment.) It is a WMP11. On the edge of the card, (away from the
antenna connection) it says mw251-1 REV:XA.
I was just thinking there is another thing you might be missing.
Even though it doesn't look like it, I believe this card is also a
PCMCIA bridge. I seem to remember having to enable the PCMCIA devices
in the kernel as well. That could cause it to not work.

I am working from sources pulled by cvsup so am on:
4.8-PRERELEASE
I suppose it could have got broken...

Exactly what card?
WMP11? I think that the Linksys WDT11 card seems to give different
values for
vendor (!?) and device values for its PCI ids - and it is a PCMCIA
bridge
onto the wireless network device.
In fact I only see reference to WDT11 in if_wi_pci.c; although I could
be looking in the wrong place, as there seems to be some stuff in
if_wi_pccard.c
Do you think I am asing in the right place?
Thanks!
