Better luck now. Things started working better when I got an

1.1.1/1.8.0, 1.1.1/1.8.2, and 1.1.1/1.8.4 and this was the result:

Hi,
I've got the same trouble with a prism2 under 3.7 (stable) / sparc64
(U10) :
pciide1: channel 1 configured to native-PCI mode
wi0 at pci2 dev 4 function 0 "US Robotics WL11000P" rev 0x02: ivec 1c
wi0: "U.S. Robotics, IEEE 802.11b PC-CARD, Version 01.02"
wi0: PRISM2 HWB3163 rev.A, Firmware 0.3.0 (primary), 1.4.9 (station),
address 00:90:d1:08:19:8e
wi0: init failed
wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC
wi0: tx buffer allocation failed
wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC
wi0: mgmt. buffer allocation failed
it was the same OpenBSD 3.5 stable ... but not with the 3.4. The
prism2 was running fine under OpenBSD 3.4 stable.
