Interestingly enough, even though I've compiled the driver into the kernel, the card isnt recognized by it. dolores# kldload if_ath.ko kldload: can't load if_ath.ko: File exists dolores# interface if_ath.1 already present in the KLD 'kernel'! and nothing in ifconfig. I think I'm out of options? Should I give up? Cheers!
