X-Mailer: VM 5.96 (beta) / Mule 2.3 (SUETSUMUHANA) based on 19.34.1 Mime-Version: 1.0 (generated by tm-edit 7.106) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi folks, for mobile users. Linksys Fast Ethernet PCCARD cards supported by the ed driver now require the addition of flag 0x80000 to their config line in pccard.conf(5). This flag is not optional. These Linksys cards will not be recognized without it. The old code tried to automatically probe for these cards. However, these probes sometimes caused non-Linksys cards to hang. I wanted to avoid introducing a new flag if I could, but I had no other solution. The description in pccard.conf(5) should be as follows: card "corega" "FEther PCC-TXF" config auto "ed" ? 0x80000 I fixed all the entries for the Linksys type card that I could find in etc/defaults/pccard.conf. Please notify me if I have missed any. -- Toshihiko ARAI / toshi@FreeBSD.org http://www.jp.FreeBSD.org/PAO/LAPTOP_SURVEY/index.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
