Hi,
  I'm another FreeBSD user who is trying hard to bring up the WaveLAN card. 
I've done all the suggestions listed in the following mail and the result is 
as follows but I really don't understand what's happening. Could anyone give 
me some help?

1. I have put pccard_enable="YES" on my /etc/rc.conf file
2. When I typed "pccardd", the following error occurs:
   pccardd[483]: fatal error: no PC-CARD slots
3. Before and after modifying /etc/rc.conf file, I typed "ifconfig -l",   
the same result occurs:
   x10 lp0 faith0 gif0 gif1 gif2 gif3 lo0 ppp0 s10
4. When I typed "ps aux | grep pccardd", the following result occurs:
   root	492  0.0  0.2  1048  620  p0  S+  11:55AM  0:00.00 grep pccardd
5. When I typed "dmesg | less", the following result occurs:

   That is, I can't find anything relating to the WaveLAN card.
6. In /var/log/messages, I found the follows:
   pccard[483]: fatal error: no PC-CARD slots
   pccard[489]: fatal error: no PC-CARD slots
7. When I typed "pccardc dumpcis", the following message occurs:
   0 slots found

   Could anyone tell me what the error is? Thank you very much!

Regards,
Wing Tim
