Hi everybody,
I have an "wireless steno MB112" from Apacer. This is a little usb memory stick
(512MB) and wireless lan card. Does anybody know (or knows how I can find out)
if this wireless card is supported? The card uses a 'Prism2' chipset.
When I plug it in, bsd tells me the following:
umass0: YOUR_COMPANY YOUR_PRODUCT, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 3
da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <USB-DISK FREEDIK-LWFORMAT 2.23> Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device
da0: 1.000MB/s transfers
da0: 252MB (517056 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 252C)
da1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 1
da1: <USB-DISK FREEDIK-LWFORMAT 2.23> Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device
da1: 1.000MB/s transfers
da1: 1MB (3776 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 1C)
ugen0: vendor 0x0967 product 0x0204, rev 1.10/1.32, addr 4
It doesn't mention the wireless functionality, I can't seem to mount the memory
stick and ifconfig doesn't list the wireless card.
I thought FreeBSD would support the card since OpenBSD lists it as supported and
I thought the two weren't that different. So should I just switch to OpenBSD or
can I get it to work with FreeBSD?

ps.
I'm a newbie on FreeBSD
