It seems like a : waste...), and just haven't been able to get it to work. Strangely, this is the card I use. : I'm running 4.0-RELEASE. I have "device ed" in my kernel config file. When I : insert the card, however, I get: : : Found existing driver (ed0) for D-Link : Using I/O addr 0x300, size 32 : Setting config reg at offs 0x400 to 0x60, Reset time = 50 ms : Assigning I/O window 0, start 0x300, size 0x20 flags 0x5 : Jun 15 20:32:00 laptop /kernel.stable: ed0 at port 0x300-0x31f irq 11 slot 0 onpccard0 : Jun 15 20:32:00 laptop /kernel.stable: ed0: address 01:d1:ff:04:d1:ff, type NE2000 (16 bit) : Assign ed0, io 0x300-0x31f, mem 0x0, 0 bytes, irq 11, flags 10 : Jun 15 20:32:00 laptop pccard:ed0: D-Link DFE-650 inserted : Jun 15 20:32:20 laptop /kernel.stable: ed0: device timeout I think there are two problems here. First, irq 11 isn't a good interrupt for you. Well, given the strangeness in the ethernet address, that should be fixed first. : In particular, note the MAC address for the card: three different cards have : presented the same MAC address; therefore, I'm fairly certain it's wrong :). Paul Saab just committed a fix that might help... I doubt it, but you might give it a try. ed0 at port 0x240-0x25f irq 11 slot 0 on pccard0 ed0: address 00:80:c8:8e:5c:55, type Linksys (16 bit) is what I get. Maybe it will help since it is a linksys related fix. : The machine is an HP OmniBook 4100. I suppose it's possible that it just : won't work with it, but that seems unlikely, I think. But it's possible. (I : currently have a 3com card that is falling apart -- it won't work unless the : dongle attachment is at an angle that looks like about 4 or 5 o'clock -- and : if it dies, I'm without networking at home.) Then the irq is likely good and the other issue is likely the problem. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
