ok i hope this is not annoying, ive sent this to another list however
there is no answer back ecept for a reccommendation to send it to freebsd
mobile. if found this happening with some xircom card in the free bsd
mobile archives but with no fixes, that work for me, so here goes

this error infinatly occures.


 xe: watchdog timeout; restarting card

 I have an Intel 10/100base TX PCMCIA card. Compaq armada 4130T running
 FreeBSD 4.6.1-RC2. Or rather I'm trying to install that version. during
 install set up card is recognised as ex0 I get enought ping for a DHCP
 request. Then the card resets. commes back up I'm trying to install over
 FTP and every 2 or three seconds it again resets. It is on a free IRQ.
 I've tried several. now it's on IRQ 10.

 card works with the win 9x that came on the lapdog, and debian that i just
 erased.  all on this laptop before.


  /etc/pccard.conf:
      io 0x240-0x360
      irq 3 9 10 11 13 15
      memory 0xd4000 96k


 I've seen some other threads from 1999 that recommend editing my card
 entry but as im installing over the network i can only take my mfsroot
 floppy over to another machine and mount and edit it there,

 I did edit the memory space to 0xd0000 which i found as a possible
 reccommended fix. this didnt work and the card was then not recognised at
 all.

I've seen alot in the archives on the error but no coherent fixes.
