Hi

Is this card (DWL-G520 rev. b3  with the AR5213 chipset ) supported in
6.0 yet? Because it doesn't appear to be:

----------------------------------------------
pciconf -lv:
ath0@pci0:6:0:	class=0x020000 card=0x3a131186 chip=0x0013168c rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
    device   = 'AR5213 802.11a/b/g Wireless Adapter'
    class    = network
    subclass = ethernet

dmesg:
ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xdffe0000-0xdffeffff irq 17 at device 6.0 on pci0
ath0: unable to attach hardware; HAL status 13
device_attach: ath0 attach returned 6
----------------------------------------------

If not, will it be sometime soon?

Also, the reason I bought this card was because ath(4) explicitly says
that the DWL-G520 rev. b works in 5.4 and 6.0, which is a lie in the
case of rev. b3, so someone should update this manpage. Of course,
this was probably before D-LInk decided to upgrade this card's chipset
to the AR5213 (the manpage thinks this card has the AR5212 chipset).

Thanks.


P.S. The above output was generated in FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE, but I did
download and boot the 6.0-RELEASE CD (didn't install), and dmesg there
gave the same output.
