AFAIK, you have to go with 5.0-current for Cardbus support. I recently had the same issue and did a little bit of searching through the freebsd-mobile mailing list for more information. I was able to get the Xircom working pretty easily in 5.0-current. I also had 4.2 install hang on me, for which I could not find a workaround other than removing the pccard. IIRC, FreeBSD hung when I put the card back in until I recompiled the kernel without pccard support (there may be other quicker and easier fixes for this, it's just how I solved the problem). -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Jason Victor Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2001 6:36 PM To: FreeBSD Stable Subject: Xircom Cardbus Ethernet support I might be switching to FreeBSD and was wondering if the Xircom Cardbus Ethernet 10/100 PCMCIA card works. I have been doing reading, but many docs are severely outdated. I have an .iso of FreeBSD 4.2, and the installer hangs until I take the card out. That isn't a good sign. I was just wondering, if I install without the card, will I be able to put it in after? I need it for work. I'm pretty sure in Linux I use a tulip_cb.o driver. That might help. Any success, anyone? --Jason __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
