Subject:   Problems initializing Thinkpad's CardBus Bridge with 4.1.1-RELEASE

Hi people,

I was finally able to get my ne2000 clone pcmcia card working properly
on my Thinkpad 310. It works ok with 4.1.1-RELEASE (I couldn't get it to
work with 3.2 or 3.5.1, with or w/o PAO). Now the problem is that if I
do not boot into Win98 first and reset to boot into FreeBSD, somehow the
CardBus bridge doesn't initialize properly, and configures itself to
[pci only] mode, which seems to cause a 'ed0 : device timeout' message
whenever I try to access the net, even when ifconfig sets the ip
address. If I boot W98 and then reset it works and show a message as
follows:

pcic-pci0: <TI PCI-1131 PCI-CardBus Bridge> irq 9 at device 4.0 on pci0
pcic-pci0: TI113X PCI Config Reg: [CSC parallel isa irq]

If I don't run W98 instead of that it set to pci and doesn't work. I
would love to remove W98 from this computer and dedicate the 3.2Gb disk
to BSD, any idea why is this happenning?

Thanks in advance,
            Miguel
