AFAICT, both linux (suse and debian) and freebsd seem to be a little hit-and-miss. What works fine on one laptop may not work on the next. I sense the smell of BIOS bugs... maybe freebsd is better than suse, but maybe BIOS bugs are the dominant factor. Frustrating. Anyway, if you can get a chance to try an install and like laptops that have low weight, long battery lifetime, lots of connectivity options and no clutter, I highly recommend the small Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebooks. If it works, it works very well, except for swapping between CD/DVD and battery in the second bay. Doesn't bother me, I never use either floppies, CDs nor DVDs.

You're going to have to provide a lot more information for use to do anything for you. Which version of FreeBSD are you using? What do you mean by "The boot floppy finds the disk as disk1"?

My Sony Ericsson GC75 works under both 4.10 and 5.3, but I think the GC75 is discontinued. A colleague of mine has the newer GC79 (? - the one with WLAN too). We have not managed to get that one working - haven't found the right atdt*99??? command. Back to the GC75. I think that the problem you described in your earlier mail is not due to the card, but some other issue possibly with the ipw driver (for the built-in Intel PRO Wireless 2100), or at least something triggered by the ipw driver. After I _unload_ the ipw driver (v1.6.3), it doesn't recognise any of my PC cards (the other two being an old and dependable Lucent WaveLAN silver card and a 3com 3CCFE574BT Ethernet card). It just says "pccard0: Card has no functions!" and "cbb0: PC Card card activation failed". _Re-loading_ the ipw module makes all cards work again! For the GC75, it says "pccard0: Allocation failed for cfe 32", but the card still works. BTW, I have a Thinkpad X40, run 5.3R and use a kernel without device apic, because that has the unwanted sideffect of making the system loose ad0 after a resume.

Appearing in the BIOS means that the BIOS knows how to talk to it, nothing more nothing less. For all we know it could be a clay-tablet printer/scanner system. :-) It would be really nice if you could find a way to get the dmesg, but I'm not sure what sort of options you'll have. Perhaps a fixit floppy. Could you try 4.10 or a 4.11 RC? It seems likely you have an ATA controller that we aren't supporting, but it's hard to say. It's entirely possible it's supported in an older version and support was accidentally dropped because no one else has such a beast. Certainly Pentium class laptops tend to be a bit weird.

You might try e-mailing Soren (sos@freebsd.org) about this, but I doubt it will be high on his priority list. Just for grins, you might try 3.5.1 or even 2.2.8 since you only need to download a few MB of floppy images. mirrorlist.freebsd.org will give you download locations. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.9 on an old laptop. it is a Gericom Pentium 100Mhz, 24MB RAM, 560MB hard disk, unable to boot from CD. btw I'd update the BIOS but it looks like i won't find an update to this old system ("SystemSoft SCU BIOS"). there was Windows95 installed, HD/CD-ROM etc. worked fine. after booting with floppy and setting mount points and running the sysinstall and all that, I get a "unable to swap to dev/ad0s1b" and then "unable to mount root filesystem". before rebooting I try Alt+F2 and I get the following: ad0: hard error writing fsbn 74 (ad0 bn 74; cn 0 tn 1 sn 11) status 51 error=04 ad0: cannot find label (no disk label) ad0s1: cannot find label (no disk label) DEBUG: Scanning disk ad0 for root filesystem DEBUG: Found rootdev at ad0s1a!

I also tried several different partitioning than the automatic settings. Google told me to try booting with "hw.pcic.intr_path=1, hw.pcic.irq=0, hw.ata.atapi_dma=0" but that didn't change a thing either. I even tried to install Debian 3.0 but it seems it also doesn't like that hard disk. Does anybody have a recommendation?

It's my understanding (from a quick google) that those are still broadcom devices. I had a Truemobile 1300 (Broadcom), and had to use NDISulator to get it running. That was with 5.2.1. Haven't looked into it much but I think NDIS is built into the kernel now?? Not sure. My point is... you may have to use the windows drivers with a wrapper to get it to work. It worked well... but I was running from windows to begin with. On the other hand... I've switched to an Atheros based miniPCI card which works quite well with 'device ath'. I can give you a link if your interested. So you might dig around and try to find out positively whose card those miniPCI devices are.

Are you saying the error doesn't appear with fdisk from 4.x but only with fdisk from 5.x? What about fdisking under 4.x, quit, start 5.x install. As far as I know, 4.x and 5.x are seriously different and that change you speak of is headache material. Perhaps though, you can do a minimum 4.x istall and have a 5.x install destroy all the data, but use the existing partions. Have you done a search for 5.x on thinkpad? I think it its a common fbsd victim. Especially check out any special actions that you may need to take concerning a suspend partition which probably already exists for xp, so the question is; can you use it for fbsd? Don't know the details, but seen the subject discussed here and there. And don't forget about freesbie. Dylan.

I have an ext2 formatted slice where I would like to install 5.x but if I install 4.x and put 5.x with the new filesystem on it, I guess, the error resumes. > Have you done a search for 5.x on thinkpad?

I purchased this, believing that I could make things work with FreeBSD -- but not so. I was replacing an old Tecra and everything worked fine, with both Linux and BSD -- not so the 1150.

I can't speak directly to IBM, but I've seen this behavior on machines w/ vendor utilities on the first slice on the disk. Dell is the first that comes to mind.

The only problem I have is that my ethernet card is not seen. It's a 3com 3c589c, which under 4.x worked right out of the gate with the ep driver. Now when I try to start pccardd manually I get the "fatal error: no PC-CARD slots" message in /var/log/messages. ifconfig -a gets me a list of plip and lo interfaces only. The only thing I could find online was a thread saying there was a bug: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-bugbusters/2004-December/000070.html. Is this still the case? It just seems hard to believe that I can't use a pcmcia card (I will try to find another one to test with, but this one has worked under 4.x FBSD, 3 Linux distros and 3 windoze versions). ===== ----------------------------------------------------------- With a few exceptions, secrecy is deeply incompatible with democracy and with science. --Carl Sagan http://www.projectcensored.org/publications/2005/index.html ----------------------------------------------------------- __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Not on the first slice but at the end of the disk, this area seem to be empty but it is not. IIrc the bios also reports a lower disk size to hide that area but Fbsd ignores that iirc. So be careful when paritioning with freebsd. Linux btw iirc recognizes the disk with the smaller size.

If your BIOS settings for the recovery system is correct (i.e. "hide content from OS") then you can safely ignore that error message and install 5.3. Did that on my T40 and works fine.

This is getting to be a FAQ. It is documented in the Handbook and release notes, but keeps popping up. Unless your system is fairly old, it's unlikely that the problem discussed in PR is causing a problem. By default, V5 does not use pccardd any more. It uses cbb and cardbus. pccardd won't run or start with the GENERIC config. What is your config? What does dmesg show? Is devd running? (It is critical to getting devices to attach.) rc.conf? there is way too little information to really guess what's failing. -- R.

But I'm cautious to continue with the installation fearing to destroy the other partitions. If I delete the ext2 slice and create a new slice for BSD two new entries appear in fdisk. And, having moved the HPA area/slice to the end of the HD, would BSD just use the slice I assign? What's with the second entry in fdisk? And what's with a suspend area? Do I have to add another slice?

All mini-PCI cards of the same type (form factor) are interchangable, TTBOMK. If they don't have the same connectors for the same function(s), they're not standards-compliant. HP, at least, defines this procedure as "user-servicable" (i.e. same as fitting extra memory) and it doesn't even invalidate warranty on a new laptop. Takes about 3 minutes the first time. I've swapped out multiple 3Com combo cards (with the non-functional Conextant winmodem) for the Intel/Lucent combo card where the Lucent winmodem works perfectly with ltmdm from ports. As a bonus, the Intel 8255x part of the card works better for me under heavy network load than the 3Com xl part/driver too. IBM, Compaq and HP have all shipped these Intel-based combo cards at one time or another, I've never paid more than $25 US on Ebay for one. Tricky part is often identifying what's on offer. Look for the Intel logo in the photo. Caveat: I've never seen an Intel combo card without a Lucent/Agrere(sp?) modem, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. The 3Com cards are far more common... Even laptop CPU's can be upgraded (assuming they're removable), and some Dell's even have the video cards on daughter-cards that are interchangeable, usually with nVidia and ATI variants. I upgraded my laptop from 14.1" XGA (1024x768) to 15" SXGA (1400x1050) display with spares from Ebay. Stuff that's truly integrated (i.e. surface-mounted on the mobo) is a lot harder to deal with if it doesn't work/isn't supported... Cheers, Andy.

Have you been able to get the internal > wireless card to work? I have an 1150 and it works great with RELENG_5 for me. I don't have the version with the internal wireless though. I use the bfe (Broadcom BCM4401) ethernet. No problems with that. If you get one, go straight to Dell's support site and get the latest bios. I had to do that before X would work. There have been a few bios updates and my 1150 was shipped with an out-dated bios which I thought lacked attention to detail by Dell when they build the machines to order in Malaysia. I got a CD R/W and DVD R and that works fine. USB2.0 ports function well as does sound. Whenever I watch videos, I choose to use the 1150 for that. Obviously the winmodem doesn't work with FreeBSD. That's the only device that isn't recognised during boot. Once thing I really like about it is being able to set the bios to boot via the ethernet port. That makes net-booting FreeBSD for driver development a breeze. I run RELENG_5 installed on the hard disk and net-boot to CURRENT. If I remember correctly, it took me about 10 minutes to get XP off it and FreeBSD on. -- John Birrell From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Jan 6 23:26:17 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1598F16A533; Thu, 6 Jan 2005 23:26:15 +0000 (GMT) Received: from blackwater.lemis.com (wantadilla.lemis.com [192.109.197.135]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 86C3A43D54; Thu, 6 Jan 2005 23:26:13 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from grog@lemis.com) Received: by blackwater.lemis.com (Postfix, from userid 1004) id BC7698566C; Fri, 7 Jan 2005 09:56:07 +1030 (CST) Date: Fri, 7 Jan 2005 09:56:07 +1030 From: Greg 'groggy' Lehey To: John Birrell Message-ID: <20050106232607.GI88329@wantadilla.lemis.com> References: <20050105062243.GO53273@wantadilla.lemis.com> <20050106224623.GA55403@freebsd3.cimlogic.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="9s922KAXlWjPfK/Q" Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <20050106224623.GA55403@freebsd3.cimlogic.com.au> User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.2.1i Organization: The FreeBSD Project Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-418-838-708 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.FreeBSD.org/ X-PGP-Fingerprint: 9A1B 8202 BCCE B846 F92F 09AC 22E6 F290 507A 4223 cc: FreeBSD Questions cc: FreeBSD mobile Mailing List Subject: Re: Experience with Dell Inspiron 1150 laptop?

The first one was a d-link DWL-600 (i think) and I could only get it working through ndiswrapper, and even then I wanted one with monitoring mode. For christmas I asked for an orinoco card because I was told they are good, but again, I got one that is unsupported under freeBSD and no monitoring mode (It's a proxim a/b combocard that isnt even supported by proxim anymore) Anyways, I need some suggestions. Can anyone suggest a good pcmcia wifi card that both works under freeBSD and has monitoring mode? My primary aim for using it is probably just for finding access points and the like so one that supports monitoring mode is a must. Thanks in advance!

I don't know about monitoring mode as I've never tried to use it (and have no idea what it is), but the D-Link DWL-G650 revisions B and C, and the NetGEAR WG511T are well-support, Atheros-based Cardbus cards. I've got these working with FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE, 5.3-RELEASE + Sam's net80211 patches, and 6-CURRENT (they also work very nicely in Windows 98SE and XP w/ and w/o SP2).

The Prism 2.x chipset, like a Compaq WL100 or an Orinocco Silver or Gold card (you can flash a Silver card to suport 128-bit WEP, then it's a Gold card), is most likely what you want. Note that these are all 16-bit 802.11b cards using the 'wi' driver, and usable with 'dstumbler' from the 'bsd-airtools' port; Way obsolete now. The Seattle free wireless web site has pointers to generic Taiwanese cards using this chipset. I'm not aware of any a/g cards with support for monitor mode - which isn't to say that they don't exist.
