Which of the 6 mainstream (requiring 3 different enpic enablers if coded correctly, or 6 if not) or 3 non-mainstream (unlikely to ever be supported unless someone who owns one does the code) PCMCIA bridge chipsets is being used by Dell to implement PCMCIA on your Lattitude? Is it an Intel, Intel, or IBM? If so, the current code should work. If it is Cyrix or AMD, you'll need a different enabler, and if it is one of the two European chips or the one from Hitachi (I think), good luck.

Do you know if the PCMCIA support in FreeBSD-current supports the Databook TCIC-2/N controller chip yet?

I've been running FreeBSD snapshots in their 2/10 and 3/22 incarnations. I have yet to hear if there is any support planned, in the works, or otherwise on the drawing board to support the QLogic SCSI controller card. A search of the mail archives didn't turn up any definitive answers to this question. And the closest thing to hardware support that I've found has been a Linux port. I thought I would give my queries a try here, as QLogic claimed by phone to have no plans to support any BSD in the near future. Anybody know?

I've experienced a weird problem with three-button emulation using a Microsoft Mouse (one of the two button, ergonomic deals) in XFree86 3.1.1. Starting from the configuration of XFree, I have selected three-button emulation. And I have subsequently and frequently verified in /etc/XF86Config that indeeed three-button emulation is specified. However, regardless of how I start XFree, three-button emulation doesn't really work. Or, I should say that, on occasion, I've gotten it to work after doing [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[F1]'s followed by [Alt]-[F4]'s. But this is largely ineffectual and seems to be luck, as it's not reproducible. As an example of how the mouse doesn't work, take Xman. When I start Xman and click on the [Manual Page] button, it correctly brings up the initial Xman help page. From the Options and Sections pulldowns menus, however, I am unable to select any options. The cursor simply floats over any of these menu items, without highlighting them. Similarly, in editres, viewres, xfontsel, etc., the same problem exists. Other than fundamental philosophical differences, can anyone suggest what may be causing this disagreement between the mouse and Xfree.

None of us have QLOGIC cards and since no one with the requisite skill and a controller has stepped forward, it's not happened.. Jordan
