Yes.  I also included my kernel config file in the paste, but here's the
relevent lines:

# Wireless NIC cards
device		wlan		# 802.11 support
device		an		# Aironet 4500/4800 802.11 wireless NICs.
device		awi		# BayStack 660 and others
device		wi		# WaveLAN/Intersil/Symbol 802.11 wireless NICs.
#device		wl		# Older non 802.11 Wavelan wireless NIC.

I left this section unchanged, as I was unsure which driver would be
required.
