I've got a rather frustrating problem if anyone can help me it would be = greatly appreciated I've tryed 3 pcmcia cards on my i8k all 3 of them = give me device timeouts (netgear fa410tx, smc 8040, and a linksys card) = all of which are on the hardware compat list except the smc card which i = read somewhere is supported so i gave it a try. Anyway I added = pccard_enable=3D"YES" pccardd_ifconfig=3D"DHCP" tryed = ifconfig_ed1=3D"DHCP" for fun and i tryed changing the irq port with the = -i flag for pccardd_flags and editing pccard.conf. Nothing seems to work = I have miibus compiled in the kernel all the proper drivers all 3 of the = cards are recognized at boot however i recieve the infamous ed1: device = timeout message. The cards work on linux and windows maybe I'm missing = something I have never dealt with pcmcia cards until now. I googled for = 2 days and asked on numerous irc channels. Am I missing something? It = seems to be a rather common problem with all the results from my google = searchs. I've also disabled everything in my bios still nothing I've = tryed using 4.9, 5.2rc2 and -current with the same results. Someone = please help me! I keep hearing its an irq conflict my card gets set to = irq 10 its seems even when i try to change it..btw all tryed = device.hints and kernel.conf.=20 Thanks -Paul
