Wireless USB Adapter fails to work with ndisgen (rtl8192su)

[Gautam]

Hi,

I am trying to use the Belkin Surf & Share Wireless USB Adapter on FreeBSD
8-Stable (csup-ed on 18.Oct), but it doesnt work. This is based on the
realtek 8192 chip. After installing the new kernel and world, I then used
ndisgen to generate the ko.

I am able to get wlan0 "UP" after I manually load the generated kernel
module rtl8192su_sys.ko

ndis0: flags=8803<UP,BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 2290
        ether 94:44:52:61:e0:dc
        media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11b
        status: associated
wlan0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        ether 94:44:52:61:e0:dc
        media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect
        ssid "" channel 1 (2412 MHz 11b)
        country US authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpower 0 bmiss 7 scanvalid 60
        roaming MANUAL bintval 0

However, both "ifconfig wlan0 scan" and "ifconfig wlan0 list scan"  yield
nothing.

Relevant logs are:

I am attaching the relevant /var/log/messages and the typescript. Anything
to be set in sysctl ?

Any pointers on how to debug this further -- I would really like to get this
to work on FreeBSD ?

Thanks
Gautam
