The RealPort is probably the best supported of any of the Xircom cards -- it certainly runs under 3.2-RELEASE and relatively recent incarnations of -STABLE. Not sure about 3.3 specifically though as I haven't upgraded yet. I expect someone on the freebsd-xircom list has tried it though.. guys? Using PAO is a bit of an unknown factor as well. Have you tried it with a non-PAO kernel? > I tried a frends card with no luck.. > > I tried using > ftp://dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org/pub/scott/xe_drv/xe_drv-1.20.tar.gz but > the files in > /usr/src/sys/dev/pccard seemed to be newer and referance a > differant location. > > I tried configurations 0x27 0xf 0x1f 0x17 and 0x3f. > > 0x3f and 0x1f brought up the xe0 device with errors.

What symptoms did you have when it didn't work? ie., did any of the dongle LEDs come on, could you send or receive at all, did you get timeouts? There may well be some changes needed for the driver to work with 3.3, so any info you can provide is useful.
