This is a 2424 pci-express card, we don't support this chip yet ;-(

(damn i thought that was only the pci express version of 5414 that we
just fixed, seems there's more to do)

Hmm it seems that 5424/2424 and later chips have a different reset
sequence we are not aware of. We 'll need traces to make it work, if
you have some time plz take a look here ->
http://madwifi.org/wiki/DevDocs/MadwifiTrace (the testbed stuff would
really help)


Thanx for the feedback ;-)
