To put your PCCard controller in polling mode you set its IRQ to 0 in your kernel config file thus: device pcic0 at isa? irq 10 port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000 becomes device pcic0 at isa? irq 0 port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000 As for your communications problem, I don't know what to tell you. Some people have had problems with these cards talking to specific kinds of hubs. Maybe try connecting it directly to another machine with a crossover cable and see if it'll talk that way.
