Okay,

The patch has been applied (laptop running 7.0-RELEASE) and all modules
loaded:

# kldload if_wpi
wpi0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG> mem 0xd8000000-0xd8000fff irq 17 at 
device  0.0 on pci4
wpi0: Ethernet address: 00:1b:77:b5:98:bd
wpi0: [ITHREAD]
#kldload wpifw
#kldload wlan_xauth

The license ack was still in my loader.conf, so that's ok too.
However: with the patch applied, wpi can't even seem to find any APs
anymore, let alone associate with them.

I included the output of wpa_supplicant below, in case it's of any help.

Regards,

Alphons

All right, that does it Bill [Donahue]. I'm pretty sure that killing Jesus
