I've looked in the archives, and this seems to have been a FAQ in the past with the answer being "they don't work yet". I haven't found anything on the subject since February, so I'm inquiring: Do PCI PCMCIA adapters work in 4.3? As far as I can tell, they do not. My Lucent ORiNOCO/WaveLAN card has the same symptoms as have been reported previously by others: wi0: tx buffer allocation failed wi0: xmit failed wi0: device timeout The host card is a "TI PCI-1410 PCI-CardBus Bridge", marketed as the ORiNOCO PCI adapter by Lucent. I tried putting the WaveLAN cards on IRQ 5 and IRQ 10. Neither of these had any other devices using them. The WaveLAN cards (I tried both of mine) both fine in my laptop. So I suspect that PCI support is not yet available in stable. Is it available in current? Is there anything a junior kernel hacker can do to try to fix this? -- Brian Buchanan brian@CSUA.Berkeley.EDU -------------------------------------------------------------------------- FreeBSD - The Power to Serve! http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
