The 505ES comes with a builtin Orinoco, wi0 recognizes it but 1. under stable continually comes up with wi0 watchdog timer messages, and won't DHCP handshake (it will connect to the AP). 2. Under current-newcard, boot stops with a panic at the second PCCBB, saying unable to connect IRQ (offhand it looks like that pccard adapter doesn't have an interrupt connected to it). 3. under current-generic gets by that but says that the card type is not recognized, then things get bogged down trying to mount root. If I manually say ufs:ad0s3a it gets to trying /sbin/init and hangs hard. Stable runs fine except that the (firewire) CDROM isn't recognized and there is a problem (looks like wrong/no IRQ) of some kind with the wi0. The station version spotted by freebsd is 6.something; I don't know if I should upgrade it to 7.x or 8.x when this is an imbedded device. I'll need to set up a serial console in order to capture the dmesg... Stable would be fine if I could come up with a set of addr/irq's that will allow the built-in wi0 to work. However, current seems to be "almost there". -- Pete To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
