support for Proxim Silver wifi card

[Petr Holub]

Sam,

any clues about the problem below? I'm starting to suspect the
problem might actually be something around CardBus, as others
have reported similar problems:

I'm also using T61p laptop. Maybe something that prevents the cards
from being init'd properly?

Petr
