Fwd: Laptop Intel Wireless drivers?

[Stripes the Tiger Cub <bengaltigerstripes%gmail.com@localhost>]

I was able to get a ralink chip recognized on the USB bus as ugen0,
but I couldn't get  the network card to actually be activated. It's a
Cisco linksys USB network card.

Major bummer. I really want this to work on NetBSD, but it looks like
I have to go back to Linux.
