The card is also available in a 16-bit version (it has a PC Card logo on the back, I don't know if the Cardbus one does or not). It's important to note that the 575 (not the 574) is CardBus. I used to have one, but semi-thankfully, it got blown up by lightning and the replacement was 16-bit and thus usuable with FreeBSD. If you actually have the 16-bit pccard version, then you need to patch your driver. I sent in patches that got committed to 4.0, but were basically replaced a month later by Matt Jacob's massive rework of the entire ep driver and not MFC'd. You can pull rev. 1.87 of if_ep.c out of the Attic from cvsweb: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/i386/isa/Attic/if_ep.c And it will drop directly into your tree in /sys/i386/isa. Make sure you have 1.23.2.1 or later of if_epreg.h. The only major change of the patch is to hit the card with an offset command if the no-offset commands don't work. I have no idea what its significance is other than it's required to make my card work. I can't remember where I got the basic idea from, it was from PAO I think. > -----Original Message----- > From: Frank Mayhar [mailto:frank@exit.com] > Sent: Wednesday, January 05, 2000 12:18 AM > To: freebsd@cybcon.com > Cc: freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: A couple questions regarding pcmcia cards.... > > > William Woods wrote: > > I have two pcmcia cards here I am wondering if the work > under either -stable > > or -current, they are: > > > > 3COM Megahertz 10/100 LAN PC Card model #3CCFE574BT > > This is a cardbus card (I have one, too) and won't work. > Many of us are > eagerly awaiting Warner's new cardbus code. > > > The other card is cardbus, so I doubt it but I will ask anyway.... > > > > Adaptec SlimSCSI 1480A UltraSCSI > > If it's cardbus, it won't work. > -- > Frank Mayhar frank@exit.com > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
