Strange. When I sent that the first time, only part of it got through.
Let's try again.

I may have found an error of sorts in the wi(4) man page. It says that
the Compaq WL110 wireless card has a PRISM-II chipset, thus this entry:

Compaq WL110                          Prism-II      PCMCIA

However, when I inserted the card, I get:
