What's support like for the old broadcom pci ADM8211 card these days?

  0000:00:0b.0 Network controller: Linksys ADMtek ADM8211 802.11b
  Wireless Interface (rev 11)
  Subsystem: Standard Microsystems Corp [SMC]: Unknown device 2602
  Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 19
  I/O ports at 9400 [size=256]
  Memory at ed101000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1K]
  Expansion ROM at 30100000 [disabled] [size=128K]
  Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2

This produces zilch on my 64 bit athlon running kern 2.6.22.10 in 64
bit mode with the latest wireles-compat stack:

  [590633.050754] usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8187

The warning is

       if (!have_band) {
               WARN_ON(1);
               return -EINVAL;
                                               }
Which appears to come from

    wiphy->bands[band] == NULL

for band = 0 to IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS - 1. I'd guess it got nothing by
reading some registers.

Any clues?

Peter
