Hello,

I've been trying for a couple for days to get a Dell 1150 True Mobile
Wireless PCMCIA card with a PCI>PCMCIA converter to work, but so far no
luck.

Hoping that any of you can help me out.

What happens is that i get the famous wi0: watchdog timeout.
I can set the card settings with wicontrol and even the other card in the
network can see those'e settings, but as soon as it comes to ip traffice the
famous watchdog starts barking...

The machine has 4 PCI cards (2 network, 1 video and the bridge for the
pcmcia), no isa cards.

I figured out that i needed the hw.pcic.intr_path="1" in my
/boot/loader.conf to make
sure that wi0 did follow the same irq as the pci>pcmcia card.

After that i disabled both serial ports and the parallel port on the machine
in the bios to make
sure these irq's were available too.

I even compiled a new kernel to make sure that the serial ports were not
even in there...

I have edit that /etc/default/pccard.conf Dell section to force the card to
use an irq (i tried all)
but all with no luck :(

Any help would REALLY be appreciated.

The dmesg etc. are included below my signature.

Thanks in advance for you time and effort.

Greetings,

Tjardick
