Hello everyone here,
I plan to buy a NIC pccard ("Trust" Brand). It claims to be NE2000
clone. This morninq, I went to the shop and plugged it into my TP390 and
then fired up Bsd. Card wasn't recognised so I made a new entry in
pccard.conf, matching the card parameters, shown below :
# PCCARD configuration file
#
# # $Id: pccard.conf,v 1.0 1999/07/04 21:36:00 emss
# Generally available IO ports
io 0x240-0x360
# Generally available IRQs (Built-in sound-card owners remove 5)
irq 10 11 13
# Available memory slots
memory 0xd4000 96k
# Trust Ethernet PC-CARD
card "IC-CARD+" "IC-CARD+"
config 0x20 "ed0" ? 0x10
insert /etc/pccard_ether ed0 link0 -link1
remove /sbin/ifconfig ed0 delete
After that, i tried pccard -d and I had the messages below :
/kernel: PC-Card VLSI 82C146 (5 mem & 2 I/O windows)
/kernel: pcic: controller irq 9
/kernel: Initializing PC-card drivers: sio
/kernel: Card inserted, slot 0
pccardd[62]: driver allocation failed for IC-CARD+
pccardd[62]: pccardd started
The dumpcis of this card is :

In the pccard.conf, I created entry for this card following the rules
below :
- brand & version match dumpcis information
- index in config line match config index in dumpcis information
- driver matches claimed pccard compatibility (ed0 for NE2000)
I think there's a mess in this config entry but don't know where
Is there a primer or a Howto upon pccards in FBSD, man pccardd & man
pccard.conf are not too verbose (I think so).
TIA
Eric MASSON
