FreeBSD fails to locate the controller chip and returns a value of 0xff for the statement 'c = getb (sp, PCIC_ID_REV)' in the file pcic.c in the pccard directory. I believe the controller chip is a Cirrus Logic chip but I don't know what version. The statement failure described above causes FreeBSD to bypass scanning for PCMCIA cards. The PCMCIA card I am using is an IBM/National Ethernet II Credit Card Adapter. >How-To-Repeat: The problem is encountered when the system is configured to support PCMCIA support for the IBM Etherlink II Credit Card Adapter. >Fix: None known. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
