FreeBSD and Centrino

I'll try a few this week to verify for you, and let you know the
results.

I've never had good luck with the 2011 pccards and "wi", so I figured
why bother.
I was using a prism based miniPCI for quite some time, but it died a few
weeks ago :(
I currently have a 2100, in my T23, but haven't loaded up FreeBSD on it
in a while.

Will the driver recognize the card without hacking it?

The wi driver supports the symbol cards.  I've had some good reports of
wi working with Centrino.  Is this in error?
