Cool, but you need a current development version of NetBSD (HEAD also known as 
current), the driver was developed recently and was not pulled to NetBSD-6 
branch yet.

Of course, because the card is not supported by 6.x. I'll request the back port 
to 6 branch, so it will be supported by NetBSD 6.2. But so far it isn't.

For now, please try the latest daily binary build:

Yes, in HEAD branch.

From dmesg output and/or man page.
