I installed FreeBSD 6.1 on Compaq Evo N800c laptop. After installing KDE
internal NIC fxp0 appeared in Network Settings.

I added  Proxim wireless PCMCIA card, recompile the kernel and I can see it
in output of ifconfig:

 

UNIX# ifconfig

fxp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

        options=8<VLAN_MTU>

        ssid Puppy channel 6

        authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpowmax 36 protmode CTS burst bintval 100

 

In KDE Network settings I can see only fxp0 card.

 

Help please,

Thanks,

Nathan
