A friend and I are trying to get a machine of his (running RELENG_4) to go
with a Netgear MA401. The trick is, however, that this isn't a laptop. We
bought the MA301 PCI adapter, but that doesn't appear to be working. It
shows up as vendor 0x1385, device 0x4100. I tried substituting these in the
wi pci probe routine, but that just hung the machine at attach time. I went
to Fry's and took a couple of other brand PCI 802.11b cards out of the box
(shh!) and they all appear to be based on that same PIX chip (perhaps with
different vendor/device ID pairs).

Has anyone got one of these to work? Do I try and get the PIX to be
recognized as a Cardbus bridge or do I have to hack the wi driver some more?

Thanks in advance.
