Didn't it always work the first time you sorry, I should of said, makes it work the first time I insert the card after a suspend in which I removed the card durning the suspend... > inserted the card, since the resume sysctl is never even in the picture > until suspend/resume. problem: a) insert card, it all works b) suspend system c) remove card while system is suspended d) resume system e) insert card, I get Card inserted message, but nothing else. f) remove card, and insert again, and it works... but I think f might be because of the pcic_resume... even though a-f happens with it equal 0, I did set it equal to 1 once, and during that time e would work fine... I'll have to see what I can do when I'm at home... thanks for the help though... -- John-Mark Gurney Modem/FAX: +1 541 683 6954 Cu Networking Live in Peace, destroy Micro$oft, support free software, run FreeBSD
