Hello,

I'm trying to install a 3Com Megahertz 589 PCCard (3CCE589 ET) on a laptop 
which is running FB3.1-STABLE.

As I didn't succeed with the "normal" version of FreeBSD,
I got PAO3-19990329-beta. But I don't succeed  either.

    # dmesg

    apm0 on isa

    [ ... ]

The message that appears on console when executing /etc/rc.pccard when the
systsem start is : 

    kldload: kernel pcic module loaded
    pccardc: /dev/card0: Device not configured
    Enable PC-card.[1] 340

I make sure that I've done a MAKEDEV on card0 just before, and 
    # ls -als /dev/card*
    0 crw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   50,   0 May  7 10:38 /dev/card0
    0 crw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   50,   1 May  7 10:39 /dev/card1

I also edited the /etc/pccard.conf
    [ ... ]
    io      0x110-0x11F          # These 2 values are the one given
    irq 10                       # by windows on which the card
                                 # works
    memory  0xd4000 96k          # for this one, I'm not sure, win give me the
                                 # 3000 - 3003 that I also tried with no result
    
    # 3Com Megahertz 3CXE589ET
    card "3Com" "Megahertz 589E"
            config  0x1 "ep0" ?
            insert  echo 3Com Megahertz 3C589E inserted
    #       insert  /etc/pccard_ether ep0
            insert  /etc/pccard_ether ep0 -link0 link1
            remove  echo 3Com Megahertz 3C589E removed
            remove  /sbin/ifconfig ep0 delete
    [ ... ]

My kernel configuration is adapted from PAO_ALL :
    [ ... ]
    options         PCIC_RESUME_RESET
    options         ATAPI_DETACH
    pseudo-device   card    1
    device          pcic0 
    device          apm0    at isa?         # Advanced Power Management
    device ep0 at isa? port 0x110 net irq 10
    [ ... ]

and my /etc/rc.conf is something like :
    [ ... ]
    apm_enable="YES"      # Set to YES if you want APM enabled.
    pccard_enable="YES"   # Set to YES if you want to configure PCCARD devices.
    pccard_mem="3000"     # If pccard_enable=YES, this is card memory address.
    pccard_ifconfig="NO"  # Specialized pccard ethernet configuration (or NO).
    [ ... ]


Some commands :
    # pccardc dumpcis
    0 slots found

    # . /etc/rc.pccard
    kldload: can't load pcic: File exists
    pccardc: /dev/card0: Device not configured
    Enable PC-card.[1] 359
    # 
    [1] + Done                 pccardd 
    
    # cat /var/log/pccardd.debug 
    #



Any idea ?
