I have two PC Cards in the laptop: my trusty 3Com 589D and a 3Com Megahertz 56k modem. Both worked fine under 4.3 (the NIC got IRQ 7 and the modem IRQ 3). However, under 4.4-STABLE, initially, my modem didn't work at all. I've searched Usenet, and it seems I'm not the only one having problems. The first thing I noticed is that both the NIC and the modem were assigned IRQ 3. The NIC then worked, the modem didn't. Removing the NIC didn't help. Having "hw.pcic.intr_path=1" in /boot/loader.conf doesn't help. But now when I change the PCMCIA mode in my laptop's BIOS from "auto-detect" to "Cardbus/16-bit", FreeBSD detects pcic as a ToPic95b controller (instead of ToPic97 if it is set to "auto-detect"), and everything works, even without hw.pcic.intr_path=1. Is this expected behaviour? Thanks, Sven To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
