Sorry. What I meant was that iwi0 didn't show up in an 'ifconfig -a', but 
wificonfig -i iwi0 showed that it was working fine. I assumed that wireless 
stuff would show up in ifconfig as well.

I didn't even realize prototype bits were up. This seems to work quite well. I 
see from your presentation that Phase 1 should bring desktop integration, which 
will be nice.
