"plain FreeBSD"'s APM and PC-Card support is limitted and > buggy. You should be use PAO. Hmmm... 3.1R was requested -- no PAO. And part of me seems to believe that if PAO were all that much more stable *and* functional than pccard, it would have been accepted onto the main branch. Be that as it may... On a HP OmniBook 4100 under 3.1-STABLE (3.1-RELEASE has some "issues" which are resloved in -STABLE) I have running with the noted mods: apm -- flags 0x0 to obtain v1.2 support 3COM 3CC156B -- proper pccard.conf entry Linksys 10/100 Ethernet -- Satoshi Asami's if_ed.c patches -- a FreeBSD development team member, FWIW I used to have a URL for the "latest" version of the patches, but they can be found by searching the FreeBSD-Mobile archives: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/search.cgi?words=asami+AND+if_ed&max=25&sort=date&source=freebsd-mobile The only issue I have is that sleeping the machine seems to disable detection of card insertion after awakening. So I just don't unplug cards after sleeping. (Hey, that's in NT too, it must be a "feature!")
