I have tried asking this on -current and received no reply. I am hoping somebody here can help me. I also have a little bit more data. I am running -CURRENT ( sup'd about 16 hours ago ) on a Dell Latitude C600. I have no internal NIC and so use a 3Com 575B PCCard for network. The problem is that the laptop is no longer able to initialize the card. If I have acpi enabled, I get a series of messages saying cbb: Unable to map IRQ... I also see it trying to probe cardbus[2-7] and pccard[2-7] with the same results. If I disable acpi at the boot loader prompt as suggested by the help message, I no longer see the above error messages ( cbb0 comes up on IRQ 11 ) and the probes of the extra cardbus and pccard devices do not occur. I do see this: Sep 4 23:03:00 squirrel kernel: xl0: <3Com 3c575B Fast Etherlink XL> port 0x1000-0x107f mem 0x88003000-0x8800307f,0x88003080-0x880030ff irq 11 at device 0.0 on cardbus0 Sep 4 23:03:00 squirrel kernel: xl0: reset didn't complete Sep 4 23:03:00 squirrel kernel: xl0: command never completed! Sep 4 23:03:00 squirrel kernel: xl0: command never completed! Sep 4 23:03:00 squirrel kernel: xl0: eeprom failed to come ready Sep 4 23:03:00 squirrel kernel: xl0: failed to read station address Sep 4 23:03:00 squirrel kernel: device_probe_and_attach: xl0 attach returned 6 I am relatively certain this is not a problem with the cardbus drivers -- my Netgear MA401 is working just fine, as long as I turn ACPI off. Can anybody offer me any advice on where to turn next? I am more than willing to attempt to debug this myself, but I have no clue what to try. I have attempted backleveling the xl drivers to early August, but that results in a kernel panic. I have plenty of output ( boot -v output, kernel configs, etc ) if anybody is interested but do not want to send yet another 500+ line email. I appreciate any possible assistance. Mik
