Your problem is almost certainly a conflict either in the IRQ assignment or the I/O assignment. Unfortunately, the current state of 3.0 IRQ and I/O assignment is such that you may end up having to hard-code the assignments into the kernel once you find a combination that works. What I did to find working combinations was to insert debugging printfs all through the pccard code wherever it checked for available IRQ's and I/O slots, so I could see exactly where it was failing and why. -Michael Robinson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
