yeah... to be honest, i postet the message about 2 mins too early. right 
afterwards i found the pci-proxy and similar things and started to 
understand the code-flow

what i'm trying to do now is to make this fake wireless device. however, 
i originally wanted to write an virtual driver for an atheros chipset, 
but the hardware-access layer is not open-source.

so, does anyone know of a chip that is used regurarly and that has an 
open-source hal?

thanks!!
