    Exactly what I needed. It looks like the driver is matching _any_ card
    passed to it... I should be glad more people haven't hit this yet :-(

    The attached patch should fix the problem - could you try building a new
    kernel with this patch and see if it works for you? ie:
            save the patch somewhere
            # cd /sys/dev/xe
            # patch < /tmp/if_xe_pccard.patch (or wherever you saved it)
            build/install/boot a new kernel as usual

    If you try inserting the Aironet with hw.xe.debug=2 again, you should get
    a lot of repetitions of "xe0: pccard_product_match", then nothing else
    from the xe driver. The right driver should then come along and claim the
    card.

    Cheers,

            Scott
