When you say "CardBus", are you talking about all
PCMCIA cards? 

There are currently 5 people in my company that have
FreeBSD 4.1 running on laptops (Toshiba, IBM, Dell) w/
PCMCIA cards (Linksys, 3COM). Unfortunately, they
haven't been able to help me get mine working. 

Can anyone help me?? What files do you need to see? Am
I talking to the right group?
