[-- Attachment #1 --] Greetings All, I have been having a problem whereby I cannot make my NETGEAR FA410TX PCMCIA NIC configure in my Compaq Prosignia 150 laptop. I have made the appropriate changes to rc.conf, such as adding “pccard_enable=”YES” and the card is recognized on boot, but no matter what I do I cannot get it to configure. The card is always placed on IRQ 3 when pccardd recognizes it, which I believe is causing an IRQ conflict with my CardBus to PCI bridge, which also happens to make use of IRQ 3. I have made changes to /etc/pccard.conf such that IRQ’s 3 and 5 are excluded from the distribution list, however pccardd still allocates the card to IRQ 3 regardless of the IRQ list settings I specify. I have read up on the list and seen this problem before, I have tried a couple solutions, I even went as far as to use “pccardc enabler” with a forced IRQ setting via the –i flag, the card still configs at IRQ3, even when I tell it manually to use another IRQ such as 10. I have also tried to get my Linksys PCMPC100V3 card to work, which is supported in pccard.conf, yet I get the same problem. The card is recognized, configured on IRQ 3 and then when I try to config it manually or via DHCP I get the same error as I got above “/kernel ed: device timeout”. If anyone can help I would appreciate that you would CC me in any and all replies. Thanks in Advance, Blane Boynton Bboynton@u.arizona.edu [-- Attachment #2 --] <html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">; <head> <meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta name=ProgId content=Word.Document> <meta name=Generator content="Microsoft Word 9"> <meta name=Originator content="Microsoft Word 9"> <link rel=File-List href="cid:filelist.xml@01C1EE88.0D6DFF00"> <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:OfficeDocumentSettings> <o:DoNotRelyOnCSS/> </o:OfficeDocumentSettings> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:DocumentKind>DocumentEmail</w:DocumentKind> <w:EnvelopeVis/> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--> <style> <!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} p.MsoAutoSig, li.MsoAutoSig, div.MsoAutoSig {margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} span.EmailStyle15 {mso-style-type:personal-compose; mso-ansi-font-size:10.0pt; mso-ascii-font-family:Arial; mso-hansi-font-family:Arial; mso-bidi-font-family:Arial; color:black;} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; mso-header-margin:.5in; mso-footer-margin:.5in; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style> </head> <body lang=EN-US style='tab-interval:.5in'> <div class=Section1> <p class=MsoNormal><span class=EmailStyle15><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family: Arial'>Greetings All,<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p> <p class=MsoNormal><span class=EmailStyle15><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family: Arial'><![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p> <p class=MsoNormal><span class=EmailStyle15><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family: Arial'>I have been having a problem whereby I cannot make my NETGEAR FA410TX PCMCIA NIC configure in my Compaq Prosignia 150 laptop.
