Subject: ids missing in ath5k ?

hi,

why these ids are not supported in ath5k ?

{ 0x168c, 0x101a, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID }, /* some Griffin-Lite */
{ 0x168c, 0x9013, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID }, /* sonicwall */


They are included in madwifi driver! Are there more of them missing ?


-thanks-

another one is { 0x168c, 0xff1a, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID }, included by openwrt:
(make atheros wifi cards used on arcaydian 4519 ifxmips based boards work)

Luis, do you know anything about these devices? Are all of these
802.11abg or are any .11h (I didn't see ath9k claiming any of
them either).

Should be easy to add support, but would be nice to know if the
hardware exists and will work.

Actually so any 0xFF1x device ID where x is any value would
be the ID if the card has issues reading our EEPROM and in that
case you can expect the card to simply not be operational, so feel
free to add it but be sure to inform the user the card is having
issues reading the EEPROM and simply disable the device.

ACK on FF1A -- 802.11abg, NACK on the others, we don't at least have
them in our own windows driver INF file.

In light of that, I'm inclined to just leave it alone then unless
someone appears with such IDs.
