There was a cal for testers a couple of days ago. Two FreeBSD comitters are 
looking at this, but they really need more testers. Could you possibly help?

The patch to add the changes to RELENG_6 is here:
http://samodelkin.net/~fjoe/if_ral.diff

Ther patch applies to /usr/src/sys and will not link directly into the kernel; 
you must load it as a module using loader.conf. Apply the patch, cd 
to /usr/src/sys/modules and do make && make install.

So far we have tested Mini-PCI cards, the original RT2560, RT2561s and the 
MIMO-XR RT2661. Tests on Cardbus cards would be particularly useful.
