[Madwifi-users] Atheros AR5416/AR5008 on other platforms than x86?

[Frank B. <F.B...@we...>]

Hi!

I'm trying to get a WiFi card (Mini PCI) based on Atheros AR5416/AR5008 to 
work on a XScale IXP platform. The WiFi card initializes fine on a x86_32 
machine and I can also successfully scan for APs. However, on the XScale 
platform all I get from the MadWifi driver is "MadWifi: unable to attach 
hardware: 'Hardware revision not supported' (HAL status 13)". On the XScale 
platform I'm using a different HAL of course (xscale-be-elf.hal.o.uu) as 
compared to the x86_32 machine (i386-elf.hal.o.uu).

Now, I was wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if there is just no 
support yet for the AR5416/AR5008 chipset in the XScale version of the HAL.

I'm using svn trunk revision 3756.

TIA,
Frank
