I have one of these in my laptop (Lattitude C800) too, but I got the "cannot allocate IRQ" error and haven't had time to look into it further. I did try the "-I -i 11" trick though and it didn't work. I also noticed that the card isn't picked up if i reboot coming from windows (instead I get something like no entry for "null,"null"), its only seen if I boot to freebsd first. I also get a whole lot of scrolling "event mask 0xfffff..." types messages during boot. All of this was using stable from a few days ago (when warner sent the last set of patches to the list). Did you have to do anything to get it to work? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
