I am using xp3264-7.7.0.329-whql.zip file from Atheros. 

When trying to convert the ones athwx.sys and netathwx.inf I am getting the
error:

ndiscvt: line 5117: : syntax error.
CONVERSION FAILED

same for

netathw.inf athw.sys

I'm sure that worked for me earlier.

Sorry, I'm not sure that I understand how to use that. Should I copy the
folders to /usr/src and rebuild world and kernel?
