#331: Proxim 8470 WD on Fedora Core 4 identified as a/b/g card by madwifi
install

------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
I am running the latest Fedora Core 4 kernel and the latest madwifi
drivers. The drivers compile and install with no problem, but a wlan0 or
wifi0 or ath0 device is never created. (Thus I cannot use wlanconfig for
the remainder of the install)
Running cardctl shows a valid pcmcia card present:
Socket 0:
3.3V CardBus card
function 0: [ready]
And an lspvi -v shows:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg
NIC (rev 01)
Subsystem: PROXIM Inc: Unknown device 0a40
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 10
Memory at 34000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2
Notice that it's being detected as an abg card, when the 8470 WD is only a
bg card.
Anyone have any ideas??
