So to hopefully improve the situation, I need to install PAO (pccard driver & pccardd ?) and use the ep driver which results in the card not being detected all the time after being suspended ? Well, the later I can live with as it already doesn't come back to life properly after "apm -z" with a 100% reliability. is that before or after I do the moon dance, painted in goat's blood and smoking funny cigarettes whilst singing chants to some unholy god ? ;) Darren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
