i've been doing testing, attempting to get two exact-same PCI cardbus PC
Card controllers to work in the same FreeBSD system, with two PC Cards
inserted that are also exactly the same. so far, FreeBSD recognizes both
controllers, but it only brings up one PCCard properly. this is on an
intel p200MMX system, 64M RAM, 2G HDD. everything about the system except
for the PCCard controllers are built on-board, such as the intel pro
on-board network card (fxp0).
i think the main difficulty is being caused by the fact that the two
PCCards are exactly the same -- pccardd keeps reporting 'no free
configuration' for the second card. if i try to manually configure the
card using 'pccardc enabler', it either reports 'device not configured' if
i hit the 'wrong' card slot number, or 'operation not supported by device'
if i hit the right slot, to enable the second card that won't come up.
the system also sees a total of THREE PCCards if i boot with both PC Cards
already put into the system, even though there's only two inserted. if i
take both cards out after the system has booted, and re-insert them one at
a time, it brings one up fine every time, but it never brings up the
second one, always quoting 'no free configuration' from pccardd.
i've tried FreeBSD3.4-RELEASE, and FreeBSD3.4-RELEASE-PAO. i am planning
on trying FreeBSD4.0-RELEASE next, but i'm not sure that this is a
'unsupported' issue -- i think i just have to tell the system more
specifically how to assign resources to the cards, yet i don't know how to
do that.
any assistance i could get in figuring out how to manually assign
everything some address space to work with would be awesome, i've been
working on this for a few days now on and off. ;) there has been talk
about trying this with linux as well as FreeBSD, and i'd like to see if i
can't get it working with FreeBSD first. ;)
relevant sections of config files follow. more of the dmesg report can be
obtained, i was just trying to limit the size of this post. thanks for
your time!
