hello all,

i have FreeBSD 5.0 RELEASE installed on OmniBook 6000
the problem is that i cannot get Xircom CreditCard Ethernet 10/100+ Modem 56 (CEM56-100) to work.

i did quite extensive search in newsgroups, but with less help.
it is listed in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf (so, supported, also seen in h/w notes)
first question: which drivers do i need?

one post said that de driver drives the card. i tend to believe that xe is the right one.

i have recompiled kernel, and put in kernel configuration
device xe
device de
device miibus

However, the card is not recognized (nothing in dmesg) and when i put it in and out, i got:

pccard0: Card has no functions!
pccbb0: PC Card card activation failed

one post suggested to put
hw.cbb.start_mem=
in /etc/loader.conf
but i do not have w2k on notebook, so i can't get this information.
could linux provide it? and would this help?

i hope my question here is appropriate.
thanks,
shpokas
