I'm afraid that 6.0 is very very advanced. I think the final version
is building right now. As such, I think it is too late to get this
into 6.0. If 6.0 unexpectedly slips out, I'll try for it. However,
it should be in 6.1 for sure.

However, it would appear that this is a variation of this card that
the FreeBSD kernel doesn't know about yet. Some versions of this card
have a manufacturer id of 0x021b instead of 0xffff. I've added a new
device ID to current for this. I'll see what I can do about
back-porting it to 5.x, but I no longer have any 5.x laptops around
for easy testing so that may take a while.
To add support yourself, you'll need to add the following line to
pccarddevs near the other billionton entries:
product BILLIONTON LNA100B { "Billionton", "LNA-100B", NULL, NULL } Billionton LNA-100B
And then add a line like the following to if_ed_pccard.c in the
ed_card_products section:
{ PCMCIA_CARD(BILLIONTON, LNA100B, 0), NE2000DVF_AX88190},
near the other BIOLLIONTON lines. Rebuild, reinstall and try again.
