I added ndis to the kernel and built the kernel module using
http://www.linuxant.com/usr11gv40q.zip driver.
However, when I load the module:
# kldstat -vn usr*
Id Refs Address Size Name
2 1 0xc216c000 3d000 usr11g_sys.ko
Contains modules:
Id Name
180 pci/usr11g_sys
181 cardbus/usr11g_sys
182 pccard/usr11g_sys
183 uhub/usr11g_sys
#
I get errors. From dmesg:
cardbus1: Expecting link target, got 0xed
cardbus1: Resource not specified in CIS: id=10, size=2000
cardbus1: Resource not specified in CIS: id=14, size=20000
ndis0: <U.S. Robotics 802.11g Wireless Turbo Adapter> mem 0x88020000-0x88021fff,0x88000000-0x8801ffff irq 11 at device 0.0 on cardbus1
ndis0: NDIS API version: 5.1
ndis0: init handler failed
device_attach: ndis0 attach returned 6
What am I doing wrong?
