atheros and pcmcia: card is not recognized

[Bjoern Franke <bjo@nord-west.org>]

Hello,

I bought a Netgear WG511U which is supported by the madwifi-driver.
I created a file /etc/pcmcia/atheros.conf which is included by
/etc/pcmcia/config:

device "atheros"
class "network" module "ath_pci"
card "Atheros WiFi Card"

manfid 0x0271, 0x0012
bind "atheros"

But if I insert the card or restart the pcmcia-services, the card gets
not recognized. When I load manually the ath_pci-module, the card
works well.

cardctl ident says:

Socket 0:
  product info: "Atheros Communications, Inc.", "AR5001-0000-0000",
"Wireless LAN Reference Card", "00"
  manfid: 0x0271, 0x0012
  function: 6 (network)
Socket 1:
  no product info available

any ideas?

TIA
bjo
