WPI driver

Hi,
I'm trying your driver in my sony AR41S notebook:
pciconf -lv
...
device = '3945ABG Intel 3945ABG Wireless LAN controller'
...
cbb0 at pci8:3:0: class=0x060700 card=0x9016104d chip=0x8039104c rev=0x00 
hdr=0x02


uname -a
... 7.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #3 : Tue Aug 21 12:41:59 CEST 2007 
... amd64

I've downloaded the source:
20070715-wpi-freebsd-7.0-current.tgz


I've built and installed both the firmware and the driver without problems.

Unfortunately when I start the driver:
ifconfig wpi0 up

I get a neverending output which loops on and on:

Any light to shed?

Thanks.
