[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, After failing the first time a few months ago, trying to install the Xircom card mentioned in the subject in a Dell Latitude CPxJ, today I decided to have another go at it, partly because of Michael Lucas's article about dualbooting -STABLE & -CURRENT. I still failed to get the (network part of the) card to work in -CURRENT though. I installed recent snapshots of both 4.6-STABLE & 5.0-CURRENT from snapshots.jp.freebsd.org, as described in the article. Using 4.6 the card works fine, apart from some 'Code 136 unknown' messages and a 'xe0: watchdog timeout; resetting card' message. Below are the relevant lines from the dmesg for -STABLE (boot -v): pccard0: Assigning xe0: io 0x2e8-0x2ef irq 11 mem 0x0-0xffffffff xe0 at port 0x2e8-0x2ef iomem 0xd1000-0xd1fff irq 11 slot 0 on pccard0 xe0: Forcing IRQ to 11 xe0: Xircom CEM56, bonding version 0x55, 100Mbps capable, with modem xe0: DingoID = 0x444b, RevisionID = 0, VendorID = 0 xe0: Ethernet address 00:10:a4:f1:33:37 bpf: xe0 attached xe0: watchdog timeout; resetting card The card does *not* work in -CURRENT however: pccard0: Assigning xe0: io 0x2e8-0x2ef irq 11 mem 0x0-0xffffffff Jun 18 14:27:58 nbwin141 pccardd[141]: driver allocation failed for Xircom(CreditCard Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56): Device not configured I have 'device xe' in my kernel for -CURRENT (although I checked and it appears to be included in GENERIC also), I have made a pccard.conf that looks like: irq 11 memory 0xd1000 96k (although I don't suspect that is the problem), I've tried with or without ACPI (by 'unset acpi_load' in the loader), and reinserting the card after boot; all of those didn't seem to matter. After searching the archives there was mention of setting the memory address in /etc/sysctl.conf, but still no go. As all other relevant information is a bit large (2 x verbose dmesg, etc. etc.) I do not include them here, but they are of course available on request. uname's: FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT-20020616-JPSNAP #1: Tue Jun 18 13:33:01 GMT 2002 FreeBSD 4.6-RC-20020616-JPSNAP #0: Sat Jun 15 23:37:24 GMT 2002 Can anyone help me? I'd like to help test -CURRENT with this laptop.
