Hi Joao,

I have a Psion/Dacom 'Gold' PC-Card V90 modem, and yeah, it "works".
When I connect to the modems here at work, 33k6 everytime. When I log
onto my ISP, something in the 'high 40's' everytime.

What do you need to know? I just 'plug it in', FreeBSD sees it as 'sio1'
(for me) and it just works. No hassle, no drama.

Oh, if you _are_ having hassles, you may need to check your PCMCIA set
up (e.g. in your /etc/rc.conf file)

pccard_conf="/etc/pccard.conf"
pccard_enable="YES"

and verify that the PSION/DACOM entry is in the /etc/pccard.conf file.
Your kernel needs the "device card" in it as well.

After that, it's pretty much 'plain sailing'.

hth,

haxxa
