It depends on the card. As someone already pointed out, this particular card has the modem as the first entry in the combo-card, but with other combo cards you might have the reverse experience.

True. I use a GreyCell combo card which has the ethernet first.

(Yes, I know I've gone way outside your PCMCIA query). Cardbus Support (CL CD6832) 3com Fast Etherlink XL Cardbus controller (3c575tx) Adaptec Ultra SCSI (APA-1480A) Multiple Controller Support And while we're on the subject of wish list for mobile users... IR (especially fIR) support. (I'd love to be able to PPP over IR between my server and laptop... both are IR capable). Docking Station warmboot (existance determined on resume, probe for and configure devices, etc.) PAO merged into -current, future bleeding edge develop done on a "mobile" branch. As far as PCcards go, I have the following cards: Adaptec SlimSCSI APA-1460A GW2k XJ1560 Telepath 33.6 X2 Modem (USR OEM) Megahertz XJ10BT ATT KeepInTouch 28.8 Data/Fax Modem I've only played with the 1460A under FreeBSD. I did have a working 3com etherlink card, but it died. So, I guess, Mhz XJ10BT support would be number one on my 16-bit list. Or any 16-bit 10/100 or 100-only ethernet card! I may just buy the 3com card Mike just meantioned to use until Cardbus support.

Yes, the 3C574 "RoadRunner", there seems no technically detailed documentation which is avairable to the public. The PCMCIA package for linux now has a 3C674 driver, which is developed upon 3COM's internal information. Though it is not so difficult to incorporate necessary changes according to this driver to the current ep driver, it will cause lots of headachs :-< - nao To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-mobile Wed Mar 4 20:16:29 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA21433 for freebsd-mobile-outgoing; Wed, 4 Mar 1998 20:16:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.frihet.com (root@frihet.bayarea.net [205.219.92.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA21398 for ; Wed, 4 Mar 1998 20:16:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tweten@ns.frihet.com) Received: from ns.frihet.com (tweten@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ns.frihet.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA03362; Wed, 4 Mar 1998 20:15:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tweten@ns.frihet.com) Message-Id: <199803050415.UAA03362@ns.frihet.com> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.1 12/23/97 To: Nate Williams cc: Mike Smith , mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Developer asks for list of desired supported cards Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Wed, 04 Mar 1998 20:15:37 -0800 From: "David E.

Does this mean that the FreeBSD driver's inability to "force" an IRQ, contrary to what the card requests was fixed while I wasn't looking? That was the problem that made it fail the last time I took my Adaptec SlimSCSI out of its box and tried it. The interrupts that are available on my laptop form a disjoint set with those the card says it needs. If thats true, its just great!

If the latter, >I want to get one of these if they are common. The XJ10BT card is a 10Mbps Ethernet PCcard (16-bit). It reports being a "CC10BT/2" when inserted. I'm currently not using this card due to its 10Mbps limit. As such, I'm willing to LOAN this to the cause.

I have finally printed the APM 1.2 standard. I am surprised to discover that my desktop supports suspend/resume!!! What would people like to see supportedt hat is in 1.2? I have plans for the following: 1) Number of battery query support 2) Bits that describe what the APM can do: can it suspend? Can it resume? Can it resume after a timeout? Can it resume on RI? 3) The ability to suspend with an optional argument that causes a resume to happen after a period of time. 4) The ability to suspend after a period of idle time if the power is available (three guesses at the make of computers this is for :-). 5) The ability to resume on RI. 6) The ability to turn off the display. 7) The ability to hook into timer based requests from the APM BIOS. 8) support for drive spin down?

Has bad block handling improved recently? I remember trying to install 2.2.2 and not being able to, because my internal IDE disk had lots of bad blocks on them. 2.2.5's installer scanned for, and locked out, all of my bad blocks. Installation was smooth sailing. I am having some problems, though, and maybe you can help me. 1. My Toshiba Fn-keys don't work. For example, I normally use Fn-F2 to cycle through my power saving modes (sometimes even when I"m on battery power I want to run the machine full-tilt for a small while). This key combination does nothing. Nor does Fn-F3 (change sound volume), or the Fn key that switches between the internal and external monitor. In fact, none of 'em work! 2. I have my BIOS set to turn the screen's power off after 2 minutes of no activity. This works fine -- if I leave the machine alone for 2+ minutes, it will turn off the LCD. But when I press any key (to reactivate the screen), the screen does not reactivate -- it stays powered off. I can still use the system (i.e. if I press backspace I can hear my bash shell beeping at me, I can type "reboot" and the system reboots etc.) so it is not completely locked up. 3. I tried using the "green" screen saver, and the DPMS (Energy Star) support in XFree86. It does not work -- the screen blanks (i.e. it turns black), but the power to the LCD remains on. Yes, my LCD display is Energy Star compliant. 4. Last, I think I need a new pccard.conf entry for my ethernet card. It's a Linksys Ethernet Combo card model EC2T). Someone told me that the "CIS tuples" for the newer Linksys cards (mine was bought just a week ago) are different than the ones currently in the FreeBSD config file. Does anyone have the proper pccard.conf for one of these "new" Linksys cards? Once I get these minor issues settled, I'll be a very happy camper. So if you have any ideas, solutions, workarounds, etc. would you please post them to the list?

This isn't FreeBSD's fault. Those key combnations are handled by the SMI interrupt handler in the BIOS. For whatever it's worth, they work just fine on most other Toshiba machines (eg. this here 220CDS). Do you have APM enabled & so forth? It may be that this interacts on your system. > 2.

The DPMS stuff can't (as far as I can tell) control the LCD backlight. Without checking the APM documents closely, I think that's an APM issue.

This is just what I do on my Toshiba, and although the screen power is still on, I get the impression that it is not sucking much juice. (If I run in console mode instead of X, the battery lasts for hours and hours, so this would also confirm my suspicion that turning black is saving power.)

Turning the screen off saves power, but turning the backlight off saves more. FWIW, most systems will kill the backlight when you close the lid, which is what I do.

Leftovers from the probe should be ignored, because the are only noticed if siointr() or siointr1() is called, and these functions shouldn't be called because device interrupts are masked. pccard apparently miswires the interrupts so that an interrupt (perhaps for another device) is delivered to siointr(). Perhaps the problem is simply pccard's abuse of non-fast interrupts. Non-fast interrupts can be leftover from the probe. Drivers that support non-fast interrupts and report unexpected interrupts verbosely should have something to de-verbosify the leftover ones. E.g., the wd driver. sio doesn't support non-fast interrupts :-).

Probably not. unregister_intr() is sloppy about clearing leftover interrupts, but there is no problem if IRQ 4 hasn't been registered, and if it has been registered then PCIC shouldn't be able to reassign it.

Ok, this is the hint I seemed to need: In the kernel configuration I have: sio0 at 0x3f8 irq 4 sio1 at 0x2f8 irq 3 But the default (0x1) configuration for the modem had it at 0x3f8. I changed ætc/pccard.conf to use configuration 0x3 which uses 0x2f8 and the problem seems to be solved.

I don't know if anything gets left-over that could potentially mess things up. (I don't subscribe to Bruce's idea about mis-wired interrupts, but I do know that sio doesn't do fast interrupts, and won't unless he writes the code to support it.)

Ahh, an I/O port conflict. Yes, that (along with the rest of allocated resources) isn't done as nicely as it could be. I/O ports should be able to be allocated by the driver (like IRQ's), but it appears that the code as written requires the ports in the driver in the kernel config file to be the same as the PCCARD I/O ports in the config entry. I spaced this requirement, sorry. Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
