Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm trying to get my ACER laptop to work right with a no-name PCMCIA ne2000-clone card (an EP-210 according to the back of the box...) [This is 2.2.2-RELEASE.] However; the pcicard probe seems to come back with some "interesting" values - and nothing works... It doesn't seem that inserting a card is triggering pccardd. The probe comes back with: PC-Card Cirrus Logic PD672K (5 mem & 2 I/O windows) pcic: controller irq 5 which I don't quite understand; as I have the sound card set up on irq #5. (Could not getting the irq could be the reason why insertion of a card isn't signaling pccardd...) I'm guessing the pcic interrupt was allocated at #5 because I don't have the sound stuff configured yet - so the pcic code simply took "the next one." - But, the hardware is configured so IRQ 5 is the sound card (via the bios) and I have "plug-and-play OS" disabled... Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there a way to specifically allocate an IRQ to the PCI-card device? If so, how do I determine what my hardware is doing? - Thanks - - Dave Rivers -
