Sorry for the lame post, but here goes.

Madwifi works fine on linux laptops, but need support in Freebsd.

The post I read I seem to remember saying that it (madwifi) was native
in current?

I took a new hd in a Dell laptop.  Did an ftp install of 5.1 stable.
Cvsuped to current for source and ports. Did a buildworld, recompiled
the kernel and did a installworld.  Everything seemed to work fine.

Stuck in a 11a card (works fine with madwifi in linux) and looked for
an ath0 interface. Found nothing.  Looked in modules and found the ath_hal
module.  Installed it with kld, but there's got to be another supporting
module somewhere for the interface?

The answer isn't to grab the ported linux tarball off of sf.net, is it?
If it is, I am really missing something here.

Any and all help would be great.


Either config your kernel with:


device  ath
device  wlan
device  ath_hal

or build these as modules, install them, and do

kldload ath

Module dependencies will do the rest.
