I run a 3C589D-Combo with FreeBSD 3.2 RELEASE and PAO3 on a Toshiba 230CDX. Card detection runs fine and is assigned to ep0 interface. The only little problem is I need to force BNC connexion detection with link1 parameter in /etc/pccard.conf: card "3Com Corporation" "3C589" config default "ep0" 10 insert logger -s 3Com Etherlink III inserted insert /etc/pccard_ether $device link1. remove logger -s 3Com Etherlink III removed remove /etc/pccard_ether_remove $device dmesg still displays UTP connexion (ep0: utp/bnc[*UTP*] address 00:06:08:f1:fe:1f) but link is ok on BNC port. I have no 10BaseT cable to test if it works differently with UTP lan cable. Previously to the installation of PAO, with zp0 support, BNC was automatically detected (or by default?). I may do something wrong since I am new to FreeBSD! Yves. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
