What version of FreeBSD?

PCM100 support appears to have been added to FreeBSD 4.x on
May 27 04:52:48 2000 UTC and has been included in every 4.x release
except 4.0. You may want to grab the latest release (FreeBSD 4.3)
or a -stable snapshot and try. In addition, there are a few web pages
describing the installation gotchas for laptop installs (check the
list archives).

AFAIK, PAO has not been updated for later 4.x releases since most of
its functionality has been integrated (with the possible exception of
cardbus support which is being developed in 5.0-CURRENT).
