Hello,

I have a laptop with FreeBSD 6.1 on it and I am very glad with it.
Recently, I received a card for wireless internet - it is a Verizon
Wireless PC5740 card. I would like to run it on my laptop under
FreeBSD. Can you provide me some pointers and hints how I can do this.
I did some searching on it and I found [1], which contains instruction
on how to change the kernel. I followed them and built successfully my
kernel wih them, but the problem is that when I plug the card in the
laptop, dmesg does not show anything.

Could you please provide me some help for setting up the card? Thank
you very much in advance.

Regards
Rambius
