Hi, I am very new to FreeBSD. So, please pardon me if my questions are too trivial or have been asked before. I am trying to use a Cisco Aironet 350 Series WLAN client adapter on a desktop with a PCMCIA slot running FreeBSD 4.4. I noticed that my pccard.conf file only had an entry for the 340 series card. Based on suggestions from a FreeBSD site, I changed the 340 to 350 in the /etc directory and now the machine finds a match for the card and says "pccardd started" upon reboot. However, it does say "Failed to allocate IRQ for Cisco Systems". How do I allocate an IRQ for the device? Currently, my /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC file has an IRQ 0 entry for the PCMCIA card. I figured this should be ok to use any available IRQ. However, it certainly does not seem to work. Also, I am unable to execute any ifconfig or ancontrol commands on the WLAN interface. No interface "anX" is listed. There is a pcic0 that is listed against the PCMCIA support, but then that does not seem to be an interface. When I try "ancontrol -i an0 -S", it says "ancontrol: SIOCGAIRONET: Device not configured". I have the following lines included in the rc.conf file: pccard_enable="YES" pccard_mem="0xd0000" pccard_ifconfig="inet 10.10.10.59 netmask 255.255.255.0" Any ideas on how I might be able to get this to work?
