Before anything else try hacking your /kernel.conf so that sio2 has the same ISA settings as under Windows. See man 5 kernel.conf for help here. Failing that, give my old 'route the PCMCIA ISA function interrupt separate= ly =66rom the ISA card service interrupt' patch at:- http://www.incunabulum.com/code/patches/sys/pccard-func-isa-routing.patch =2E..that is, assuming your PCMCIA-ISA bridge is a Ricoh chip. If it's another vendor, you may need to hack that patch a bit more. > Another one with the same problem as I (I guess) can be found here: > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-mobile/2004-May/003813.html >=20 > PS.

FreeBSD 5 is less likely to suffer from the same problem because the pcmcia/cardbus code is totally different. Hope this helps, BMS
