I just tried booting off a fresh NetBSD 4.0 i386 CD. The result looks to me
as if the card is recognized, but the stock kernel does not have a driver
to attach to it.
Yes, it looks that way to me too - it read the config registers and
didn't find a match. I am trying to remember the failure mode - I don't
remember if it was failure to notice that a card was inserted, or that
interrupts didn't work so the card would never receive packets and get
transmit timeouts.
Atheros Communications, Inc., AR5001-0000-0000, Wireless LAN Reference
Card, 00 (manufacturer 0x271, product 0x12) vendor 0x168c product
0x0013 (ethernet network, revision 0x01) at cardbus1 function 0 not
configured
Vendor 0x168c Product 0x0013 is in my netbsd-4 sources, but coded as AR5212.
0x271 and 0x12 look odd and I don't find the vendor code in pcidevs.
I bet this is almost identical in freebsd, but here it is:
