I don't have the specifics at this time, but that was all it took. The problem is the same one seen on various other laptops; polling locked the system up so the IRQ had to be specified. Once the IRQ was right it would recognize that there was an insert/remove event, but would not recognize the specific card until the base address was set for the controller in the kernel. -- -Kent- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
