I was trying the same thing on 3.1-RELEASE (with PAO3) and found that the ep driver does not support this card. (The hardware spec for 3CCFEM556B seems to be slightly different from the cards which is supported by ep driver.) I happend to find Linux supports this card with pcmcia-cs-3.0.9. Their driver is the modified one from the driver for 3c589 which is equivalent to ep driver. So, information is there, but I couldn't make ep driver to work bacause of my lack of knowledge. Is anybody here trying to hack ep driver to make it work with 3CCFEM556B? -- Osamu MIHARA // NEC Printers Division To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
