D-Link DWL-520

Hello, 

I just purchased a D-Link DWL-520 wireless card for my 3.3 system. I made 
sure to pick only from the list of compatible hardware at 
http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html#hardware, since I figured compatibility 
would be sketchy at best. 

Much to my surprise, after putting it in my older (P-90) system, it was not 
detected at bootup (dmesg has nothing even resembling it). After looking 
through the archives, I found that, apparently, some DWL-520's work, and 
others don't. 

I'd like to try to figure out if my particular card is compatible, and if 
it's not, if there are any tweaks (I saw something about firmware upgrades 
in the archives) I could do to make it compatible. Here's as much info as 
appears relevant from the box: 

Model DWL-520
IEEE 802.11b compatible
2.4GHz, DSS
PCI 2.2
Reverse SMA Antenna Connector (the antenna comes out at a 90 degree angle) 

Any info would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks,
Alex Kirk
