Subject: adding a wireless networking PCI card to the Qube?

I'm having some odd troubles adding a PCI card to my Qube2. The box
just doesn't seem to recognize the card at all. I don't see any sort
of message about it in dmesg, no "unconfigured card" message, and
certainly not any happy configuration messages. I'm running
NetBSD-current as of about a week ago.
The card is a D-Link DWL-520 wireless PCI card -- basicly, it is a
mini-PCI card slapped onto a PCI card. It works fine on my i386
box, which is running the same -current code. It is recognized
as follows:
wi0 at pci0 dev 16 function 0: Intersil Prism2.5 Wireless Lan
wi0: interrupting at irq 10
wi0: 802.11 address 00:05:5d:ed:b8:0c
wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3874A(Mini-PCI)
wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary (1.0.5), Station (1.3.4)
Alas, I see no such message from my faithful Qube2. I've seen messages
from folks who've successfully installed PCI cards on Qubes, so I just
have to wonder if I'm missing a secret handshake? Is there some sort
of jumper I didn't notice? I've already checked the seating of the
card twice, so hopefully that's not the issue.
Thanks,
Kevin

# IDE drives
# Flags are used only with controllers that support DMA operations
# and mode settings (e.g. some pciide controllers)
# The lowest order four bits (rightmost digit) of the flags define the PIO
# mode to use, the next set of four bits the DMA mode and the third set the
# UltraDMA mode. For each set of four bits, the 3 lower bits define the mode
# to use, and the last bit must be 1 for this setting to be used.
# For DMA and UDMA, 0xf (1111) means 'disable'.
# 0x0fac means 'use PIO mode 4, DMA mode 2, disable UltraDMA'.
# (0xc=1100, 0xa=1010, 0xf=1111)
# 0x0000 means "use whatever the drive claims to support".
