FREEBSD 6.1 RELEASE

I just bought a wireless pci card, CNet CWP-854, and according to the =
ral man page this card is supported.  I compiled a new kernel with =
'device wlan' and 'device ral' as per the ral man page, it compile =
without any errors, but I can't get it to work.

If I run: 'ifconfig ral0 inet 192.168.1.42 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid =
04Z412560727'=20
I get this: 'ifconfig: interface ral0 does not exist'

I run this: 'kldload if_ral'
I get this: 'kldload: can't load if_ral: File exists'

I run this: 'pciconf -lv'
I get this: none1@pci2:2:0: class=3D0x028000 card=3D0x25611814 =
chip=3D0x03011814 rev=3D0x00 hdr=3D0x00
               vendor   =3D 'Ralink Technology, Corp'

I run this: 'dmesg | grep ral0'
I get this: nothing, zip, not a thing.

Sometimes, when I exit fluxbox I see this on the screen: 'Module pci/ral =
failed to register: 17'

I'm totally confused, does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

regards
