Sidestepping the CardBus supprt question a little (someone more intimate
with -current than I should answer that...) I'm pretty sure there's no
driver for the CardBus Xircoms. They use quite different hardware to the
PCMCIA models supported by my xe driver.
ISTR people muttering that they were interested in working on it though.
Fire an email to <freebsd-xircom@lovett.com> and see if anyone confesses.
Cheers,
Scott
