Description ken 2004-05-07 01:40:22 UTC

The SMC SMC2532W-B (Prism-2.5 PCMCIA) is supported by the wi(4) driver under
FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE, but is not listed on the wi(4) man page.

This card, however, is not supported under FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE.

The OpenBSD wi(4) page says:
"Note that some of the PRISM-II adapters only work at 3.3V, hence cardbus(4)
support is required for those cards to set VCC correctly, even though they
are really 16bit cards."

Fix: 

Add this card to the man page or other documentation of supported hardware.

I'm not sure if anybody is interested in documenting products by name, rather
than by chipset since that information is not always readily available.

I have access to 20+ more machines that I can document, if it would be helpful.
How-To-Repeat:       man 4 wi
