I'm trying to get FreeBSD 4.3 working on my old Dell Latitude LM 133ST laptop to use it as a large digital picture frame. Everything has been working great, except for PC Card support (and sound, but that's not really important), so unfortunately my D-link DE-660CT doesn't work and I can't really remotely update the contents of the picture database. The kernel detects the Cirrus controller, but it doesn't look like it actually does anything with it. The card slots are never powered up and pccardd claims that there are no available PC card slots. The only way I've been able to get my PC Cards to work is by booting up off a DOS boot disk and using DOS drivers to set up the PC card slots first, and then soft-rebooting into FreeBSD. Is this some known issue with older PC Card controllers, or have I missed something? LINT doesn't doesn't shed much light on any tweeking I can do to the pcic device, and despite many attempts I haven't yet been able to get FreeBSD to get the cards online by itself yet. The kernel being used is GENERIC. Anybody have any ideas?
