[General] Installation Issues MacBook?

[Bernd Helber]

Hi wishi,

i use an  Atheros Chip on my Thinkpad T41 too.
ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xc0210000-0xc021ffff irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci2
it's an 5212 Chip.

It works with wpa_supplicant.
unfortunately i can't tell you anything about Mac Books.

i could only say Desktop BSD works on my Thinkpad like a charm.

Hope that's a little bit helpful for you.

cheers 

Bernd
