However, when ioctl(SIOCGIFCONF) is called, the interface name is not returned in the list. All other interfaces are. This does not affect ifconfig, because this gets its list of interfaces from sysctl() and not the SIGCGIFCONF ioctl(). I'm assuming that the problem is with pccardd not registering the interface, but I don't know enough about its internal workings or that of the kernel to look into fixing it. >How-To-Repeat: The simplest way to demonstrate the problem is to run 'amd -v'. It will report "No networks." even when the card is configured and running correctly. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
