different cards that matched vendor/id, but weren't wi cards. This is
because the vendor foolishly didn't have unique product ids. Symbol
has a serial card that would otherwise match the wi driver, for
example...

there's not dependencies on pccard symboles, such a dependency is not
necessary. This means that drivers that have multiple attachments can
not drag bogus devices into the kernel at load time.
We can't (yet) do this with pci and isa. Drivers written for them
actually do seem to have symbols that depend on these busses'
implementation code.
ndis not touched until other things can be tested.
network layer (ether).
- Don't abuse module names to facilitate ifconfig module loading;
such abuse isn't really needed. (And if we do need type information
associated with a module then we should make it explicit and not
use hacks.)
of the entries have a description, we'll use that to override the
description that the pccard layer generates for us.
This saves about 930 bytes in the module, so I feel it won't hurt the
crowded boot disks....

cards. Since the firmware is hard coded into the kernel, I've made it
a kernel option (WI_SYMBOL_FIRMWARE).
Note: This only downloads into the RAM of these cards. It doesn't
download into FLASH, and is somewhat limited. There needs to be a
better way to deal, but this works for now. My Symbol LA4132 CF card
works now.

wrote. This code was for 4.5-release, so I've ported it to -current
and made a few minor tweaks. The biggest non-style tweak was to not
make access point the default.
More changes will be needed to get this actually working, but I wanted
to get a relatively pure baseline. This doesn't seem to break what
works now.
interface that is compatible with the LUCENT or HERMES firmware.
Instead, it is like the various No Wires Necessary products that were
produced a while ago and then sold to intersil. It will require a
different driver altogether. Remove it from the list of supported
cards.
The 3CRWE777A apperas to be a re-badged SMC 2602W card, so the driver
appears to support it. Add it to the list.
Thanks to Todd Miller for loaning me the card during tonight's FRUUG
meeting for testing against CU's wireless infrastructure.
