Hi folks, I'm having trouble figuring out how to choose a supported PCMCIA modem for -CURRENT's NEWCARD. First, am I doing things properly? I have this in my kernel config device cbb device pccard device cardbus and this in /boot/loader.conf: hw.cardbus.debug="1" hw.cardbus.cis_debug="1" hw.pccard.debug="1" hw.pccard.cis_debug="1" hw.cbb.debug="1" With nothing plugged into this Compaq Presario 2712EA's cardbus slot, I get this from dmesg: pccbb0: <TI1410 PCI-CardBus Bridge> irq 11 at device 6.0 on pci2 pccbb0: PCI Memory allocated: d0200000 cardbus0: <CardBus bus> on pccbb0 pccard0: <16-bit PCCard bus> on pccbb0 pccbb0: pccbb_power: CARD_VCC_0V and CARD_VPP_0V [44] pccbb0: card inserted: event=0x00000000, state=00000000 pccbb0: Unsupported card type detected Looks suspect already. :-) I tried inserting a Xircom 32bit CardBus CME56WG, and got no kernel messages at all. Adding the device/vendor ID of the device to sio_pci.c (on the recommendation of someone on IRC) didn't help. So am I on the right track? When I insert a supported device, should I expect to see kernel messages from cardbus0? And if so, has anyone got any recommendations for a decent device, preferably one that offers a real sio device and not some WinModem junk? My local wholesaler has a 3CXM756 on offer, but won't let me try before I buy. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
