Re: For the love of God, is it even possible to make the Atheros ath.patch & updated HAL actually work?

  It seems that I could be member of this ANYBODY:

  FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE #5: Fri Feb  3 09:13:13 CET 2006
  ath_hal: 0.9.16.13 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, RF5413, DFS)
  ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xfe710000-0xfe71ffff at device 0.0 on cardbus1
  ath0_at_pci4:0:0:  class=0x020000 card=0x6804a727 chip=0x001b168c rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
  vendor   = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'

  That's a 3CRPAG175B 3com card and it works for me with Sam's patch
  adapted for RELENG_6. I can send it to you if you want, but it would
  be wiser to wait for Sam's new and clean patches.
