Any ideas as to how to fix memchr, and implement MmGetPhysicalAddress?

My HP dv9000 uses the same broadcom chip, but unfortunately it has a wifi on/off switch.
Under XP the broadcom chip is correctly activated and the wifi led turns blue.
However under FreeBSD + NDIS, the led is always red and the chip is never properly activated.

# kldstat
Id Refs Address Size Name
1 9 0xffffffff80100000 965008 kernel
2 1 0xffffffffa7283000 84f20 bcmwl564_sys.ko
3 1 0xffffffffa7308000 71aa if_ndis.ko
4 2 0xffffffffa7310000 115a4 ndis.ko

# ifconfig ndis0
ifconfig: interface ndis0 does not exist

I highly doubt it, but perhaps the new driver could solve this? Please let me know if you're able to fix both memory functions and I'll give it a try.

Btw, I'm running FreeBSD 6.2/amd64.
