Re: wg511 trouble: PCI: ... unknown header 7f

Hi John,

are you sure that your Netgear WG511 card has a TI chip? Is it something
like Version 2 of the WG511? If so this should be mentioned somewhere on
the 'supported cards' page. The WG511 I own is working with the prism
driver and has an Intersil chip.

I hope that the manufactures of this card will stop to change the
hardwre while keeping the name. It would help the Linux-comunity a lot.
