Hello list,

Well i got a Netgear WG511T  (108Mbps PCMCIA Card), on an IBM laptop
(Thinkpad 600X) running FreeBSD-6.0..
it was supposed that since the card has an Atheros chipset it would be
supported from scratch
but even though, i can't even make drivers with ndisgen, getting an error
like:

ndiscvt: line 234: "D:ARAI(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;SY)(A;CI;GA;;;IU)": syntax
error.
CONVERSION FAILED
#


furthermore, while doing a dmesg i get this:


# dmesg |grep ath
ath_hal: 0.9.14.9 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413)
npx0: <math processor> on motherboard
ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0x88000000-0x8800ffff irq 9 at device 0.0 on
cardbus0
ath0: unable to attach hardware; HAL status 3
device_attach: ath0 attach returned 6
#





Can anybody help ?
