 Dear David,
 
 I re-compiled the kernel activating everything from PCIBIOS on, with exception 
of these entries that said they shall not be enabled as they serve the purposes 
of specific laptops. It did not help, I still had no wireless device. - When I 
did this, I had not seen your last e-mail, actually, I just checked this during 
an (also futile) attempt to get sound, so I do not have the dmesg now. Would 
you like to see it? - And do you have any other suggestions? - If not, I guess 
I'll give NetBSD's NDIS-facility a try...
 
 Thank you for your help.
 
 Kind regards,
 
 Nino
