Perhaps something should be added to the man page and defaults/rc.conf about pccardd not being necessary for newcard? > Well, when I insert a network card, nothing happens.

Do you need this type of output as well? There should at the very least be a kernel message that pops up when you insert the card, something along the lines of: pccbb0: card inserted: event=0x00000000, state=30000920 If you don't at least see that, then something strange is happening... We would also need to know what network card you're attempting to use as well. -Jon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
