Willing to loan wireless network card to FreeBSD developer

The card is a SMC2632W-V2 and it refuses to co-operate.  The card is on the
list of supported cards, but apparently V2 is different from V1.

I have this entry in pccard.conf.

card "SMC" "2632W-V2"
          config auto "wi" ? 0x10000
          insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
          remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop

The system finds the card, but it then errors out saying with the
following:

wi0 at port 0x240-0x27f irq 11 flags 0x10000 slot 0 on pccard0
wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0000; event status 0x0000
wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0000; event status 0x0000
wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0000; event status 0x0000
wi0: init failed wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0021; event status 0x0000
wi0: timeout in wi_cmd 0x0021; event status 0x0000
wi0: mac read failed 5 device_probe_and_attach: wi0 attach returned 5

A Linksys card I was able to borrow works just fine, so the problem
appears to be limited to the SMC card.

Believing this to be a problem of my limited knowledge and not the
card per se, I hope someone wants to give it a try.

Please contact me off-list to make arrangements.

Best regards,

Scott DF
