Hi Folks! I just got my thinkpad, and I'm close to having it more or less working. IBM TP560, Megahertz XJ4336 modem, 3C589D ethernet. I've managed to get the modem to work...or at least I've managed to get pccardd to see it. Haven't gotten far enough to worry about actually USING it. :-) The ethernet card won't go though. In fact there are a couple of things I haven't been able to understand. I'm running a 5-July 2.2 SNAP off of releng22.freebsd.org, so I've got Nate's 3C589D patches. Here's the PCCARD entry I have thus far: card "3Com Corporation" "3c589D" config 0x1 "ep0" ? insert echo 3Com Etherlink III inserted insert /etc/pccard_ether ep0 -link0 link1 remove echo 3Com Etherlink III removed remove /sbin/ifconfig ep0 delete ...so I have some questions on this. First of all, it doesn't work and I'm not sure how to tell why -- I get 'driver allocation failed for...' on this. Things I note: * When I did this without pccardd, it worked with a static zp0 driver. The zp driver has 'iomen 0xd8000' in it...I'm not sure if that has any significance here. * Why shouldn't I be using zp0 above? * Why can't I make this work? I have ep0 in the kernel config file, but I'm not sure I need it. I don't understand how this stuff is working together yet. Also, in another vein...I've almost got X working, but it can't find my modem. That doesn't work because when it boots up, it tells me 'psm0 disabled, not probed'. I get the same action on apm0. lpt0 just isn't found, which is also curious since I see a parallel port on the back of this thing. Ideas on why these things don't probe? I looked for interrupt conflicts but that doesn't seem to be the problem. Wondering, Brian
