I have a pair of orinoco 802.11b cards that I'm using to boot strap
my home lan.  I'm planning to use a desktop that is also my border
router as the IBSS "hub" for this little test.  The 802.11b card
sits in a PCI-CardBus Bridge.  Pccardd is running.

I've verified that the orinoco cards pccards are good.  They both work on the
wireless lan at work.   Yet when I put ether card in the CardBus slot on
the desktop I get decending tones and the following messages in 
dmesg:

    pccard: card inserted, slot 0
    wi0: <WaveLAN/IEEE 802.11> at port 0x240-0x27f irq 13 slot 0 on pccard0
    pcic0: Hardware does not support irq 13.
    wi0: bus_setup_intr() failed! (22)
    device_probe_and_attach: wi0 attach returned 22

the same thing happens if I stuff a wired ethernet pccard in:

    pccard: card inserted, slot 0
    xe0 at port 0x2e8-0x2ef iomem 0xc8000-0xc8fff irq 13 slot 0 on pccard0
    pcic0: Hardware does not support irq 13.
    device_probe_and_attach: xe0 attach returned 22
    pccard: card removed, slot 0

So the problem is probably not the orinoco card but something with the pccard
adapter.

uname -a returns

    root@fedde.littleton.co.us:/home/usr.obj/home/usr.src/sys/FEDDE  i386

Autodetect finds the pcic-pci0 as
    pcic-pci0: <Ricoh RL5C475 PCI-CardBus Bridge> mem 0xeb102000-0xeb102fff
    irq 10 at device 20.0 on pci0

Have you any idea what I'm doing wrong?
