One (this one) has an intel pro wireless 3945ABG installed, which returns: wpi0: irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci6 wpi0: Driver Revision 20071127 wpi0: 0x1000 bytes of rid 0x10 res 3 failed (0, 0xffffffffffffffff). wpi0: could not allocate memory resource device_attach: wpi0 attach returned 6 and the broadcom used in the other does the exact same thing. I'm thinking that this isn't really a problem with the wifi, but may be a mini-pci-e issue. does anyone know how to solve this problem? previous attempts under fbsd-7 using the previous ndis driver would always panic upon kldload. both laptops are currently running -stable with kernels from around the 6th of this month. any help would be appreciated. i currently have to operate tethered with a linksys ural0 compat usb adapter. jim
