[This is an email copy of a Usenet post to "alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.tyan,comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc"]
I recently upgraded my server from an old single-processor K6 on an Epox
board, to a Dual PII/400 on a Tyan Tiger 100 (S1833DL). I have
everything up and running perfectly, EXCEPT for my wireless network. I
use 2Mbps Lucent WaveLAN cards, which are PCMCIA devices; to allow me to
plug them into an ISA bus, I use a generic PCMCIA to ISA adapter card.
Unfortunately this set up is NOT working on my new system. The PCMCIA
slots *are* recognized on boot, as can be seen by the following boot
messages:
pcic0: <Cirrus Logic PD672X> at port 0x3e0-0x3e1 on isa0
pcic0: Polling mode
pccard0: <PC Card bus -- kludge version> on pcic0
pccard1: <PC Card bus -- kludge version> on pcic0
However, the system is NOT properly identifying cards that are inserted
into the slots (such as the WaveLAN).
pccard: card inserted, slot 0
Mar 3 00:08:42 borg-cube pccardd[203]: No card in database for "(null)"
("(null)")
I have tried reserving various IRQ's for "ISA use only" in the BIOS, to
no avail.
Please note that this same setup worked PERFECTLY with my older system
(based on the Epox MVP4A board and K6-2/500).
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know... I am just about at wit's
end here... arrrrgh!!!!!!
