I wouldn't swear to it, but I seem to remember someone posting that cardbus support is only in -current right now. Don't quote me on that though. If you want to see what is definitely supported, try taking a look at /usr/src/etc/defaults/pccard.conf. If you cvsup to -stable, you'll notice a larger number of supported devices once you run mergemaster to get the newer pccard.conf. -Otter p.s. my 10/100 Megahertz (3com)574B works just fine on my Toshiba Satellite 330CDS. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Joseph Stein Sent: Sunday, January 21, 2001 8:29 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Notebook ethernet cards? I have recently bitten the bullet and installed FreeBSD on my laptop (a Toshiba Satellite 2515CDS), however, can not get it to attach to my LAN. The LAN cards I am trying to use are a PC-Card (CardBus) LinkSys PC200 and a D-Link DSB-650TX USB connector. If I have the USB connector plugged in on boot up, I get: aue0: MII read timed out repeatedly, and have to remove & power-cycle to get the machine back up. The PCCARD lan adaptor doesn't even probe or activate. Any ideas on other LAN hardware that might actually work? I'd really like to get a homogenous FreeBSD environment here :) (FWIW, the rest of my machines are running 4.2-STABLE; the laptop is running a 4.2-RELEASE from the ISO image at ftp.freebsd.org) joe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
