Jerry - If you have a "PnP OS setting" in BIOS, I would try disabling it. I have a thinkpad 1552 and while that was enabled none of the PC Card (Standard or PAO builds) Ethernet drivers on my machine would work. After turning it off everything works fine. Hope that helps. - Mike Whitley On Wed, 15 Dec 1999 jkendall@Celestica.com wrote: > > > > Hi there, > > I have installed FreeBSD R3.3 on my Thinkpad 600E. > Everything seems to work OK except the Ethernet card. > > It is a 3COM 3C589D-TP PCMCIA. > > > I have tried rebuilding the kernel with it at numerous IRQs IOs and MEMs but for > some reason, it just does not see bring it up. > It sees it, but forget about sending data.
