I'm using an RBE-100 Xircom in obsd with a recent snapshot 3/25 of 2.8 installed, maybe you can muck with their driver to get it going. I had the identical 4.2 install difficulties with the card. * David Cerce <forbin@crosswinds.net> [010405 09:25]: > AFAIK, you have to go with 5.0-current for Cardbus support.
