Hi,

Maybe this message should go to mobile.

Machine: IBM ThinkPad 600 (Model 2645-85U) PII-300, 64 RAM, 4GB HDD
Network card: Xircom CE3B-100BTX (pcmcia)

I've SUP yesterday (Sept 30) from cvsup12.freebsd.org , make world, mergemaster,
MAKEDEV, updated /stand , rebooted, everyting seems to be ok but I'm getting an
error related to the pcmcia network card.

uname -a :
FreeBSD thinkpad600.sprintnet.ca 4.9-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE #0: Tue
Sep 30 23:25:10 EDT 2003
root@thinkpad600.sprintnet.ca:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

(from dmesg) :
pccard: card inserted, slot 0

module_register: module pccard/xe already exists!
linker_file_sysinit "if_xe.ko" failed to register! 17
xe0: watchdog timeout; resetting card

After reset the card starts to function normally (gets an IP from DHCP 
server, etc.). Can somebody help? What I'm doing wrong ?

Thanks,

Zeno.
