Hello Folks,
I'm having trouble getting my Dell D610 to recognize my Broadcom/Dell
miniPCI b/g wireless card.
What I've done so far is as follows:
1) I copied the drivers that windows was using successfully from my
windows slice to my freebsd slice.
2) I made sure that the .inf file was ascii, after that I generated
bcmwl5_sys.ko with ndisgen.
3) I loaded the module generated, it loaded successfully.
At this point I expected to see a ndis0 device popup, however sadly this
wasn't the case.
Running after running pciconf -lv I think I've successfully identified
the miniPCI card as PCI:3:3:0 and the driver appears to see it, however
that's it.
Below is the snippit of my system log after attaching the driver. Below
that is the pciconf -lv output

Now the pciconf -lv output:

Any advice would is welcome. If I can get the wireless card working and
resolve an ACPI video issue I have, I will have just about everything
that I'm interested in, fully functional.
Thank you
