Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->freebsd-doc Reclassify. Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->keramida I'll handle this one. State Changed From-To: open->patched I talked about this a bit with Sam Leffler and he preferred the removal of the list from ath(4), since the online list of hardware that uses Atheros-chipsets is much better and does not get stale or out of date after a while. Therefore, in revision 1.39 of src/share/man/man4/ath.4,v I deleted the list, so we don't have to add this entry now. State Changed From-To: patched->closed MFC'd to RELENG_6. The RELENG_5 manpage has many more differences and I'm not sure if the online hardware list applies 100% to the RELENG_5 version of ath(4), so I left the manpage unchanged in that branch. |
Just a note to say that my wireless PCI card works flawlessly, but is not mentioned in the manpage of ath. It's a rev. B2 of a D-Link G520. The best string to describe it would be: D-Link DWL-G520B2 AR5212 PCI b/g output from pciconf -vl: ath0@pci0:20:0: class=0x020000 card=0x3a131186 chip=0x0013168c rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Atheros Communications Inc.' device = 'AR5212, AR5213 802.11a/b/g Wireless Adapter' class = network subclass = ethernet Fix: Add the following line to "man ath": D-Link DWL-G520B2 AR5212 PCI b/g
