On some versions of FreeBSD (e.g., 4.0 and 4.2), the pcic device is non-functional after rebooting from Windows to FreeBSD. Depending on the circumstances, you may have to reboot again, or you may have to cycle power. * You're using a 4.3 release candidate (or a recent -stable), and the pcic device is in polled mode. (Search the archives for more information.) * (Probably not likely, as you're using a laptop.) You've got some kind of IRQ conflict; dmesg shows something like: pcic0: at port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000 irq 10 on isa0 pcic0: management irq 11 Note the IRQs. In the above, they don't match, but they must, for proper operation. * (???) You're using a cardbus card, and you're not using -current (only -current "supports" cardbus, but most people should *NOT* be using -current). -- Darryl Okahata darrylo@soco.agilent.com DISCLAIMER: this message is the author's personal opinion and does not constitute the support, opinion, or policy of Agilent Technologies, or of the little green men that have been following him all day.
