Warner, Don't know if it's pccard related or not, but on a build of STABLE on Saturday my ipfw was all dinked up. I was seeing all kinds of nasty get socket errors whenever I tried to add a rule. This evening whe I cvsup'd I noticed some code changes coming in with sufixes of fw on them so I went and rebuilt world here. Seems that cleaned up all the errors, and ipfw is once again working for me on this laptop. I should note that there is still a nasty timing problem on boot up in relation to when pccard kicks in. It's the last darn thing to run, after pretty much all my networking daemons have already been asked to go. pccardd really needs to get going long before stuff like ipfw kicks in. At this point I simply have a shell script that I run following a boot up that forces a reload of all my ipfw rules. It works and all, but it is an awfully nasty hack around. Any chance a more elegant solution might be in the works sometime soon? Lastly, do any of the changes you've made here effect the Xircom PCMCIA cards? I've got a RealPort Cardbus Ethernet 10/100+Modem 56 over here I'd love to try out some time. Not a real big deal, as this Linksys card I've got now work terrific after all your hard work over there.
