If you just want to use your 3c575 with your thinkpad 600E, I just so happen to be using the same configuration and have a patch that will get this to work. As far as real cardbus support goes, I've been poking at it lately to try to get this working... and unless somebody else is actively working on this, I'd say we're real far away from working cardbus support. If you're interested in trying out the ugly hack for the 3c575 I have, you can grab ftp://ftp.spock.org/pub/cardbus.diff.latest . This should apply cleanly to 4.1-STABLE and includes support for the TI1250A, 3C575, Xircom CBE2, as well as a small change to allow the TP600E sound card to work with all these. Note that there is a small problem with suspending with a busy network - you should unplug the ethernet cord before suspending. Also, there is no support for insert/removal. -- (o_ 1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-2 _o) \\\_\ Jonathan Chen jon@spock.org /_/// <____) No electrons were harmed during production of this message (____> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
