My FreeBSD mobile experience. To: mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Wed, 23 Sep 1998 23:10:53 -0300 (EST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL40 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I've changed my pccard.conf and used (by mistake) a device not compiled in the kernel. Say, "sio2", when I had compiled only sio0 and sio1. I know I should not have done that, but panicing the system was not a polite way of telling such. :) Also, most times my FreeBSD (-current from july end) does not detect the removal of a pccard. If I reenter the card (or even another one), it detects the removal and the insertion. It's not a hardware problem, since Win95 DTRT. Is this a know bug (instability) in the pccard subsystem ? Oh, why not talk about all problems I've seen ? :) Using a Adaptec SlimScsi from a friend I noted that removing and reinserting the card creates a second scsi bus (scbus1). Removing it again freezes the system in a error loop. Does the CAM subsystem support bus removal ? If that matters, my notebook is a Toshiba CDS 305, and the pccard is the Xircom modem that comes with it. Jonny -- Joao Carlos Mendes Luis M.Sc.
