I have a Lenovo ThinkPad R50e 1834-BM8 which came with an IBM Atheros
AR5212 based mini-PCI a/b/g card which works better with OpenBSD than
it does with the XP-Pro that came installed. The only access point I
have is 802.11b with a Prism 2.5 card running on OpenBSD 3.6.
Here is the dmesg that I am about to send in to dmesg@ as soon as I
check out a few things. The card didn't work with 3.7 but is fine with
a snap from 20050712.
